double ring
#redspiral
unusual galaxy with "red" core and "blue" outline: spiral-elliptical transition object?
Here's an idea: https://i.imgur.com/5NdWkMR.png what if it's some kind of tidal tail with that fuzzy object being the remnant core?
#blueberry
#x-shaped bulge
It definitely doesn't look very connected to the central galaxy, so I'd say the main object looks pretty much like an elliptical.
much better visible in DECaLS: https://i.imgur.com/QZATzqN.jpg?1
There's a very faint ellipsoid ring surrounding the object: https://i.imgur.com/fEl52N4.png
#compact elliptical with diffuse ring

Hardest galaxy to classify I've seen in a while... it looks exactly like a star.

The edge-on area is 50,000 light years across, and the possible polar ring is 40,000 light years.
possible #polarring or overlap? Core bulge is unusually large.
That would be a bright star in the foreground. You can often tell if the object has a clear "edge" to it, like the yellow star at lower left

This galaxy is ~360,000 light years across! It's nearly as large as Messier 87. Lensing doesn't seem too far-fetched to me.
Seems to be a couple of very active galaxies merging with each other, with a #voorwerpje between them!
The redshift says this might be an #overlap with the center galaxy being just a bit closer than the one on the left!
This is quite an odd glitch in the imaging equipment! Left trail seems to be coming from a star, but what causes the horizontal one?
NGC 5474-type galaxy
They appear to be at similar distances either way.
Judging by the interaction (or lack thereof) it seems the center galaxy is being slightly overlapped by the large (vertical) spiral.
A couple of purple peas? The galaxies together are only 45,000 light years across, and each is only about 25,000 light years.
#merger but an early stage one. The galaxies are both about the same distance.
Blue or green marks like this are usually asteroids seen in one exposure but moved out of the field when the next exposure was taken.
There are usually a large amount of background galaxies all over the place- the central galaxy looks like a regular elliptical to me though!
supernova example: https://talk.galaxyzoo.org/#/subjects/AGZ0005wjk
quite nearly all green dots in SDSS data are cosmic rays, with supernovae being spectrally neutral.
Admittedly you would have to look at the redshift: Both galaxies are nearly exactly the same redshift, and as such are the same distance
Seems the galaxies are #merging and the bright point is a star overlapping the galaxies.
looks like a spiral (right) colliding with an edge-on galaxy (left) or something along those lines. a #merger either way.
unusual morphology - A barred spiral with no "spiral"!
it seems we're looking at an #overlap - the central spiral is z=0.050, and the one to the right is z=0.076!
very compact in the center, with a large surrounding halo region.
faint sign of a ring
looks like a #merger : Both are at a redshift of ~0.051.
looks like background galaxies to me, with a bright star in the middle.
part of a larger galaxy cluster which somehow doesn't have an Abell designation
might be unrelated galaxies, but it almost looks like there's a tail going straight from lower right, and curving at the upper left

asteroid is 3996 Fugaku
Nope, this is the only image of the asteroid to what the observations can determine.
I know the asteroid hasn't been discovered yet with 98% certainty. Now to look if it was observed over multiple days...
Unless the asteroid has been observed for multiple days, but that would take a relatively rare coincidence.
Unfortunately the Minor Planet Center doesn't accept asteroid discoveries from SDSS images, because of the difficulty recovering them.
most circular orange, white, and blue objects with well-defined boundaries you encounter in GZ are stars, such as in this case.

it's a #star overlapping a galaxy faintly visible to the left of the star, made much dimmer because the star is very bright in comparison.

#edgeoffield
my #400th barred spiral to enter my collection!
well it looks like a relatively undisturbed spiral galaxy overlapped by a very disturbed irregular.
thanks C_cld.
another color that AGNs sometimes have is an orangish-green like AGZ0005e5l
elliptical galaxy and F0 star
so your conclusion is..? By the way, using the grid tool it appears that each line is about 22" long.
two rings- also a faint hazy one outside the galaxy.
here's one AGZ0002244
mostly just star formation. Voorwerps are usually odd colors like indigo, purple, or dark green. You generally know when you see one.
might it possibly be a geostationary satellite?
#voorwerpje
the UKIDSS images have a very definite color for AGNs, but SDSS has more of a muted, dusty pink color like this galaxy.
note the slightly pinkish color. I don't know what it's caused by, but most AGNs I've seen have this tinge to them.
no visible interaction- overlap is the best guess.
central galaxy is an #AGN spiral - object to upper left is a #disturbed #starburst galaxy
lens below (very faint) and above (even fainter) the galaxy?
is the object to the lower left a star?
as I continue, I find more and more reclassified galaxies. Which is interesting, considering I've only classified roughly 1% of GZ images
LMC-type Barred Spiral with plenty of star formation going on.
upper object: 1-armed spiral (other arm possibly looping around lower) lower object: elliptical (possible source of arm(?))
#NGC 901
satellite of NGC 901 (lower left)
it's hard to tell- especially with ellipticals.
diffuse in appearance but with spiral coloring
It appears to be a likely unrelated grouping of stars in a relatively densely-populated patch of the Milky Way.
barred spiral detail.
galaxy obscured by a dust cloud in the Orion Molecular Cloud Complex
Thanks. The problem is that it gets harder and harder to see pointy tips the more elongated the galaxy is.
E9 elliptical or edge on?
#pollaring?
#airplanetrail xD
one arm
Just an idea of mine, as I sometimes see odd colors like this at the ends of 'stripes'.
Possibly caused by pre-dawn glow around the telescope just before it finishes observing.
I have no idea what the cause behind it is, but the general field appears to have this tinge to it.
elliptical obscured by a very diffuse gas cloud
ring of material coming from below and to the right of the galaxy?
I have no idea how this type of ring is formed, but it looks cool.
It's a couple of stars, or possibly a star/galaxy overlap; although it appears that I'm a bit late.
#shell_elliptical and my #1800th elliptical to enter my collection!
not sure whether to count as 2 or 3 arms
spiral obscured by a number of stars, making classification difficult.
very #disturbed possibly caused by merger with the object @cappella pointed out
Occasionally I see these red areas near a galaxy. Are these new fields? Dust lanes? Filter errors?
I refer to Messier 40. If you look at the object, you'll see what I mean.
Note the slight elongation top/bottom. Also note that I never specified whether it was a visual or optical binary.
looks like a binary.
an M40-esque galaxy. xD
@Capella05 I've moved on to many new projects and other places, but I will still be in galaxy zoo for a very long time.
@Budgieye while it is shining through a red nebula, a large contributor appears to be the glow of HD 180124 in the field.
optical binary upper left of center
NGC 210-type ring
trail of stars coming from right. Possibly merging with galaxy to lower left.
Thanks @C_cld
Really hard to tell, but I think the definition of open cluster versus part of the milky way is a very complicated differentiation.
looks like 3 or 4. #UGC
any way to find out what comet it is?
I've personally found asteroids to be the most interesting part of GZ.
figure-8 ring and high dust content indicative of young galaxies composed of mostly 1st-generation stars.
The given objects are very densely-clustered given the surrounding area, possibly a dense stellar association or sparse open cluster?
and arguably the #200th spiral to enter my collection!
a red spiral in all its glory.

I think the star on the right is wondering the same thing. xD

#Ggroup #Gclstr
another re-classified object
an M-type star. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stellar_classification
faint and distant spiral

actually 2 galaxies but you get the idea.
My first classification ever- brings back memories. 😃
LMC-type barred spiral with unusually blue starforming regions (indicative of OIII)
#AGN colored
#ring with clumps of material on both sides
well that's what the word lenticular is made for. xD
I'm surprised nobody's seen it before
#asteroid http://skyserver.sdss3.org/dr8/en/tools/explore/obj.asp?id=1237661121849983444
interesting elliptical (lenticular?) galaxy with boxlike halo extending perpendicular to the disk.
Just my opinion, but looking at the field it's in, I would say it's much more likely a planetary nebula than a green pea or star.
yea, above and to the right of the main galaxy.
possible voorwerpje-like object lower right of galaxy?
star or galaxy?
SN 1997dn
very blurry star?
NGC 5279
upper left glow is from 12.3 magnitude star
The target is a rather unremarkable part of the star's diffraction spike. I am at a loss to explain it.
@gayla all stellar associations are within our galaxy, however this one does not appear to have any more stars than surrounding regions.
another re-classified image
hard to tell at this zoom level but this appears to be a star?
#asteroid overlapping a galaxy
distant merger
It's noticeable as a faint brown haze to the left and above the galaxy from the finding chart tool.
the cluster is Abell 2670 to be specific
and an asteroid! http://skyserver.sdss3.org/dr8/en/tools/explore/obj.asp?id=1237652900210606279
if you zoom out you will see just the faintest hint of a nebula to the left of this galaxy, but it's extremely hard to see.
not sure whether to classify this as a ring or barred spiral
LDN=large dark nebula
red due to being obscured by a LDN
blue is starforming, green dots possibly cosmic rays (?)
too nebulous to be stars. Most likely merging galaxies
barred spiral- and I'm not sure- but based on the compactness of it, it's likely the other object is a star.

centered object is the faint blob
4 arms
#disturbed elliptical
in this not-so-high-quality image, the galaxy presents itself as a nearly featureless blob, as it is obscured by a nebula.
#hoag

faint glow is from HD 214447
circular ring visible around the galaxy, and possibly a very faint outer ring
#asteroid - it appears I'm late to the party
interesting morphology only slightly indicative of a spiral if anything
HD 223475
Likely a relatively distant Gpair that is only loosely interacting.
actually a diffraction spike from this nearby star http://skyserver.sdss3.org/dr8/en/tools/explore/obj.asp?id=1237680326800572630

#seyfert/AGN colored
glow is from 8.9 magnitude HD 68405
fuzzy #barred_spiral with starforming halo
I find a chance alignment of 4 galaxies unlikely, so I'm guessing it's a cluster unless proven otherwise
I should really make a collection for galaxy clusters.
spiral with nucleus concealed by a dust lane
i'm guessing related, as the left arm of the galaxy is disturbed enough to wrap around in the opposite direction.

low surface brightness galaxy to lower left
While a redshift exists for neither of the galaxies, their PhotoZ appears to be off, but the error could bring them right beside each other
very elongated E9/cD elliptical galaxy
red glow is from nearby magnitude 6.3 star, HD 112519
my #300th artifact/star to enter my collection!
& optical companion red dwarf
I find it interesting that there are so many yellow galaxies considering SDSS does not have any filters of the sort
I believe the arcs are connected, and are starforming regions of one of its arms.
update: It appears to be a distorted star directly overlapping a galaxy
I'm not sure exactly what to call this.
another one of thousands of overexposed stars
there is only ONE Milky Way......

#red_spiral
it appears star-like in the center, but more diffuse outside.

interesting elliptical
interesting colors- red spiral?
looks like a Seyfert galaxy.
Translation: seem there are peripheral points equidistant from themselves and the center. Will they orbit it?
Translation: seems that the large, lower disk merges with a smaller spiral at the top
Translation:
the lower left object could be a large star compared to the galaxy in question, or perhaps a globular cluster.
another widespread #elliptical

IrS=Infrared source, which it is, too. 😉
@arneVDK read the below comments
I'm not sure it's safe to peer that far into static...
-carusalem's eyes explode-
I warned you...
my #1400th elliptical galaxy to enter my collection! 😄
It means that the central section of the galaxy was so bright, that they had to dim it to make it easily visible!
looks like a #merger with minimal distortion
I am referring to the visible light image, which is fairly confusing.
interesting galaxy, looks #disturbed but I can't see any nearby mergers that could have done that.
then it's probably just a lenticular galaxy.
#irregular galaxy
looks like an elliptical on the way to becoming a spiral
looks like an elliptical with a small satellite.
The central galaxy is interesting in that it appears in between an elliptical and an edge-on galaxy, displaying characteristics of both.

you think so? http://cas.sdss.org/dr7/en/tools/chart/chart.asp?ra=204.34957886&dec=6.43666908
very orange/red, and a very defining sense of 3 dimensions. Is there a dust lane around the center, too?
#SDSSmismatch nice find
Very interesting-its arms are so compact! It also appears to only have one arm- a 2nd arm seems to have just separated from the nucleus! 😮
2873 and counting...
I've double classified this galaxy! 😮
First double classification for me! 😄
That mean's Ive officially classified a significant portion!
every one of these galaxies is mentioned in AGZ0007rmy
#edgeon
Explanation for why the central nucleus is red? Very high infrared emission or something else?
is object centered on a star or a satellite galaxy? The navigate makes it look like a galaxy but the image above says otherwise.
Well, at 1705 and 1823 mly away respectively, they are more likely part of an associated area than mergers.
#SDSSmismtach

A barred spiral with my eye
My pupils can just barely pry
I chose elliptical
To my dismay
For in its halo, spiral arms do lay.
purple dot at left- hard to tell if error or something else.
nothing here... Too redshifted, SDSS! 😛
#shell_elliptical 😃
It's NGC 4016 😃 Host of supernova SN 2002hm
appears fairly distant for SDSS objects.
It's a star much closer to us than the galaxy.
seems a bit disturbed- noticing nebulosity at bottom offset from nucleus.
Part of a group of overexposed stars that SDSS seems to be going through right now. Nice job recognizing it as star, versus nebula-I thought
#ukidsscloud
Probably a camera error of unknown cause. If you see any of these, use the hashtag #ukidsscloud ok? 😄
whoa! Awesome satellite image in UKIDSS! rainbow-colored because of translation of infrared into visible I presume?
NED also says "no object found"
faint & blurry spiral arms visible, I'm pretty sure I can see 4 on the left, and there's a very blurry one to the right I think.
nice one!
does the object at the bottom of the galaxy's plane appear to be a star or part of the galaxy?
to me, it appears to also have the 1 arm separate into 2 at the end.
infrared image shows a shower-like detail in lower arm similar to ram pressure stripping.
appears to be a shell elliptical.
It appears that they are a UFO which for some reason TARGETS EARTH OF ALL PLANETS and seeks to contact us through blinking lights. :p
appears to be nebulosity around the galaxy large in infrared light- possibly a large gas cloud similar to a voorwerpje except not bright?
looks kind of like a water fountain xD

Yeah, moralesl. xD
Ils sont des étoiles dans nos propres galaxies. Habituellement galaxies n'ont pas un tas de couleurs autour d'eux.
small blob at top of galaxy
really bright core in relation to the galaxy.
star cluster.
seems a bit of nebulosity offset from the core of the galaxy- lots to the left.
If it's an optical trinary, the two smaller stars around it are both binaries.
star or elliptical?
something embedded in the galaxy...
what is the image centered on exactly?
my #1300th elliptical galaxy to enter my collection!
odd galaxy- minimal nebulosity. Looks almost like the quench galaxies.
*star and the orange object is one. The object to lower left is too far to have any tidal interaction, too.
I think that the centered object is the faint diffraction spike of the star to upper right. "Artifact or Star"

Somethings particularly weird with these ones... Almost like they did the green filter twice...
😮 the aliens have gone further than lasers: Stellar Projectiles!!!
what is this? colors wrong for an elliptical or star- more like a spiral, but minimal spiral shape showing.
#ring #star
appears to be a star overlapping an elliptical
I think sue means either the red dot, or the faint magenta object barely visible to the direct lower right of the galaxy.
one of those xD
cigar-shaped elliptical. What causes these versus more ovular ones?
2 arms for most- 3rd arm at left- more conspicuous. Very faint/abstract arm at right.
well this one appears to be mostly dust with only a few stars around it.... also showing the first signs of disturbance in the top arm.
I thought it was red/green/blue... no wonder I'm not active on the asteroid topic on the forums :p
#disturbed #starburst

Take into mind that- as you say- the pic was taken much later. SDSS images span over years time - and SN's only appear for a few weeks.
One image has the satellite trail, but it is stopped when another image is take and overlaps it- but GZ classify added a black area at top!

There are two more stars at the 2nd to bottom and bottom conveniently placed RIGHT where the tidal debris are. This just seems impossible...
wow! This is so unlikely it's almost impossible- 2 galaxies are merging, causing a large tidal tail. One has a star overlapping it.
It's sauron- stay away from it!
purple-ish cloud extending from center

#merger with #barredring at bottom
maybe it's both!! 😮
possibly...
nucleus has diffraction spikes...
hahem...
plays audio recording
"Squinting, my scientific tool of choice."
:\
#diffractionspike
Well, looking at the galaxy, it has an orange nucleus, and the star is a bit to the right of the center if you squint (the very best tool!)
#Ggroup #tadpole galaxy at top left, too.
The red shape is a foreground star in front of the galaxy. And about the galaxy, probably a large merger somewhere out-of-frame.
I'm pretty sure that it's a foreground star. Hubble's stars tend to be multicolored like that, versus its 'trademark' orange galaxies.

What to classify? Faint object with green gaseousness around it- is there a classification for that?
Probably because the galaxy is edge-on.

it IS a star 😛
with the quality of the Artificially Redshifted images in mind- I wouldn't be surprised if this was the Andromeda galaxy for all it cares.
SN 2012cp_HOST
#mergers
Well the multicolored thing is a star- but the thing to the upper right of the star is another galaxy.
A star.
Also, color on the left galaxy is obviously an error, but is it the same for the one on the right galaxy?

the central object is an #artifact and quite an odd 7-10 part merger.
#NGC #ngc5941

is there actually anything here? xD
I did 😛 just saying there was a star
no. it's a ukidss camera error known as a #ukidssring
nice #barredspiral
I've got the wierdest feeling of deja vu ( AGZ0007rzi )
#merging clump?
#ukidsshole
#mergers I would guess. On another topic, the elliptical seems very defined for being so small/far away.
The galaxy has almost no redshift: 0.001427 (according to NED. It's moving 428 KM/s away from us.)
#ggroup
AGZ0007q8x
It's a foreground star and a lens flare.
really slow #asteroid or a star?
How does that work? Why is the star sort of 'blanked out' at the center?
It's actually a foreground star, but nice find!
and mergers.
did you know that when NED says "IrS" that is is Infrared Source, not Irregular Spiral, as many people (including me) thought at first.
but it's probably a star .-.
my #1000th elliptical galaxy to enter my collection! 😄
what a poor-quality image of NGC 6276! 😮
jinx xD
it's a blurry object that is #toofainttoclassify just like almost everything in the artificially redshifted survey 😛
Spiral galaxy PGC 030928, host of SN 1994N and SN 1993N.
wayyy #toofainttoclassify
not at all. simply the galaxy's arms.
Features or disk - not edge on - no bar - spiral arms - loose - 2 - odd - merger, disturbed
It appears to be a disturbed spiral galaxy, the next post will describe what to classify.
it is a huge bright blue star. 😛
( 😮 😄 look at the name- AGZ0000ahh )
probably not a lens but you never know...
very #holey galaxy
most likely.
#voorwerp
They are all stars in the foreground- you would classify as "star or artifact". It sometimes amazes you how many stars there are just here..
#ultraviolet_voorwerpje ???
#overlap ?
It appears to be a group of small protogalaxies merging together to form the larger galaxy in the center of the image.
what is that object to the bottom left?
for some reason, all of the AR images I've seen so far are bad quality such as this one.
http://casjobs.sdss.org/ImgCutoutDR7/getjpeg.aspx?ra=169.16156&dec=15.72731338&scale=0.2&width=200&height=200&opt=G
no, there were just 3 satellites moving across the image as the 3 different slides were taken.
then why does it get brighter at the bottom right?
😮 awesome!
then #lenticular with bar
PGC 047686
having trouble classifying- is it a #ring with a bar- or an elliptical with a bar?
#woorwerpje to lower left?
Well if it isn't a lens, then it would probably be either of 2 things: 1, a particularly bright part of the galaxy's disk, or 2, a lenserror
AGZ0006up3 is the same one, but pixolated
Isn't that a foregound star?
Where's the 2nd?
#ring near center
It is a small circle of stars orbiting the nucleus, some elliptical galaxies have that.
It seems to be somehow disturbed for no apparent reason...

you have to admit, that is a pretty cool galaxy.

what is the object near the bottom left of the galaxy?
most definitely- and makes for a perfect dictionary definition-

makes for a nice tadpole galaxy =)
they are a newly-found glitch made with the new survey.
where?
Appears to be a ring of sorts...

that last post... 😮
It is a satellite trail- a satellite crossing the image.
why is this object in so many peoples' favorites collections?
What would cause an artifact like that?
#lenticular ? No obvious spiral formation but all starbursts are on a flat plane relative to the galaxy.
to me, it looks like a disturbed barred spiral on an angle to our viewpoint.

poor quality? 😮
foreground stars- in many cases, supernovas are not visible even if they occurred, because the images are usually taken several days off.

both are distant galaxies. With this magnification, the star is not dim enough to see individual planets.
no obvious merger or flyby- must have merged with this one.

#doublenuclei and/or #mergers
it also appears that the central galaxy is visually close to 2 clumps to the left, which due to blurriness we think looks like an arm.

well, as it has spiral arms, I would say it is a fairly large spiral galaxy, if it is one that is.
according to the skyserver, this star has a minimum redshift of 0.025409 😛

it is a lens effect from a bright star just out of the image. It is common, and you can see a spike from the star on the left of the frame.

probably just an accidental picture of a part of the star, thinking it is the nucleus of an edge-on galaxy.
so are they both still within the galaxy, or is one in a different location.
no, just a star with a lense effect around it.

it seems the galaxy either has one arm that ends in a lobe- or is merging with the orange dot at top- or possibly a ring.
whoa!
the green beam you see in this image is an artifact caused when a satellite orbiting the earth streaks across the image, causing a line that
only shows up in a single filter because it is so fast. that is what causes this artifact that is very common among galaxy zoo images.
aha, http://skyserver.sdss3.org/dr8/en/tools/chart/chart.asp?ra=340.08372163&dec=7.62350351
possible interaction with another galaxy?
it simply appears to be a combination of the galaxy's natural color and the background radiation messing it up. i would say it is #artifact.

look at the brightest (almost green) star, go to the left to the 2nd brightest. then go down one star. follow the line of two stars
that goes down one star to the center star (stellar mapping! 😄)
there is no galaxy- the area it focuses on is a star.

This galaxy is ~360,000 light years across! It's nearly as large as Messier 87. Lensing doesn't seem too far-fetched to me.
Seems to be a couple of very active galaxies merging with each other, with a #voorwerpje between them!
The redshift says this might be an #overlap with the center galaxy being just a bit closer than the one on the left!
This is quite an odd glitch in the imaging equipment! Left trail seems to be coming from a star, but what causes the horizontal one?
NGC 5474-type galaxy
They appear to be at similar distances either way.
Judging by the interaction (or lack thereof) it seems the center galaxy is being slightly overlapped by the large (vertical) spiral.
A couple of purple peas? The galaxies together are only 45,000 light years across, and each is only about 25,000 light years.
#merger but an early stage one. The galaxies are both about the same distance.
Blue or green marks like this are usually asteroids seen in one exposure but moved out of the field when the next exposure was taken.
There are usually a large amount of background galaxies all over the place- the central galaxy looks like a regular elliptical to me though!
supernova example: https://talk.galaxyzoo.org/#/subjects/AGZ0005wjk
quite nearly all green dots in SDSS data are cosmic rays, with supernovae being spectrally neutral.
Admittedly you would have to look at the redshift: Both galaxies are nearly exactly the same redshift, and as such are the same distance
Seems the galaxies are #merging and the bright point is a star overlapping the galaxies.
looks like a spiral (right) colliding with an edge-on galaxy (left) or something along those lines. a #merger either way.
unusual morphology - A barred spiral with no "spiral"!
it seems we're looking at an #overlap - the central spiral is z=0.050, and the one to the right is z=0.076!
very compact in the center, with a large surrounding halo region.

Nope, this is the only image of the asteroid to what the observations can determine.

Unless the asteroid has been observed for multiple days, but that would take a relatively rare coincidence.
Unfortunately the Minor Planet Center doesn't accept asteroid discoveries from SDSS images, because of the difficulty recovering them.
most circular orange, white, and blue objects with well-defined boundaries you encounter in GZ are stars, such as in this case.

another color that AGNs sometimes have is an orangish-green like AGZ0005e5l

so your conclusion is..? By the way, using the grid tool it appears that each line is about 22" long.
two rings- also a faint hazy one outside the galaxy.
here's one AGZ0002244
mostly just star formation. Voorwerps are usually odd colors like indigo, purple, or dark green. You generally know when you see one.
might it possibly be a geostationary satellite?
#voorwerpje
the UKIDSS images have a very definite color for AGNs, but SDSS has more of a muted, dusty pink color like this galaxy.
#Gclstr
note the slightly pinkish color. I don't know what it's caused by, but most AGNs I've seen have this tinge to them.
no visible interaction- overlap is the best guess.
central galaxy is an #AGN spiral - object to upper left is a #disturbed #starburst galaxy
lens below (very faint) and above (even fainter) the galaxy?
is the object to the lower left a star?

Just an idea of mine, as I sometimes see odd colors like this at the ends of 'stripes'.
Possibly caused by pre-dawn glow around the telescope just before it finishes observing.
I have no idea what the cause behind it is, but the general field appears to have this tinge to it.
elliptical obscured by a very diffuse gas cloud
ring of material coming from below and to the right of the galaxy?
I have no idea how this type of ring is formed, but it looks cool.
It's a couple of stars, or possibly a star/galaxy overlap; although it appears that I'm a bit late.
#shell_elliptical and my #1800th elliptical to enter my collection!
not sure whether to count as 2 or 3 arms

Occasionally I see these red areas near a galaxy. Are these new fields? Dust lanes? Filter errors?
I refer to Messier 40. If you look at the object, you'll see what I mean.
Note the slight elongation top/bottom. Also note that I never specified whether it was a visual or optical binary.

looks like a Seyfert galaxy.
Translation: seem there are peripheral points equidistant from themselves and the center. Will they orbit it?
Translation: seems that the large, lower disk merges with a smaller spiral at the top
Translation:
the lower left object could be a large star compared to the galaxy in question, or perhaps a globular cluster.

my #1400th elliptical galaxy to enter my collection! 😄
It means that the central section of the galaxy was so bright, that they had to dim it to make it easily visible!
looks like a #merger with minimal distortion
I am referring to the visible light image, which is fairly confusing.
interesting galaxy, looks #disturbed but I can't see any nearby mergers that could have done that.
then it's probably just a lenticular galaxy.
#irregular galaxy
looks like an elliptical on the way to becoming a spiral
looks like an elliptical with a small satellite.
The central galaxy is interesting in that it appears in between an elliptical and an edge-on galaxy, displaying characteristics of both.

Probably a camera error of unknown cause. If you see any of these, use the hashtag #ukidsscloud ok? 😄
whoa! Awesome satellite image in UKIDSS! rainbow-colored because of translation of infrared into visible I presume?

faint & blurry spiral arms visible, I'm pretty sure I can see 4 on the left, and there's a very blurry one to the right I think.
nice one!
does the object at the bottom of the galaxy's plane appear to be a star or part of the galaxy?
to me, it appears to also have the 1 arm separate into 2 at the end.

It appears that they are a UFO which for some reason TARGETS EARTH OF ALL PLANETS and seeks to contact us through blinking lights. :p

cigar-shaped elliptical. What causes these versus more ovular ones?
2 arms for most- 3rd arm at left- more conspicuous. Very faint/abstract arm at right.

Well, looking at the galaxy, it has an orange nucleus, and the star is a bit to the right of the center if you squint (the very best tool!)
#Ggroup #tadpole galaxy at top left, too.
The red shape is a foreground star in front of the galaxy. And about the galaxy, probably a large merger somewhere out-of-frame.
I'm pretty sure that it's a foreground star. Hubble's stars tend to be multicolored like that, versus its 'trademark' orange galaxies.

what is that object to the bottom left?
#toofainttoclassify
for some reason, all of the AR images I've seen so far are bad quality such as this one.

#ring
no, there were just 3 satellites moving across the image as the 3 different slides were taken.
nice #barredspiral
then why does it get brighter at the bottom right?
😮 awesome!
then #lenticular with bar
#lens ?
PGC 047686
having trouble classifying- is it a #ring with a bar- or an elliptical with a bar?
#ukidssring
#ukidssring
#woorwerpje to lower left?
Well if it isn't a lens, then it would probably be either of 2 things: 1, a particularly bright part of the galaxy's disk, or 2, a lenserror
AGZ0006up3 is the same one, but pixolated
Isn't that a foregound star?
#dustlane
Where's the 2nd?
#ring near center
It is a small circle of stars orbiting the nucleus, some elliptical galaxies have that.
It seems to be somehow disturbed for no apparent reason...
the last galaxy zoo image entered to date!

Appears to be a ring of sorts...
my #100th disturbed galaxy to enter my collection!
odd image... what is it?
#dustlane
very faint #ring galaxy
IC 1256
that last post... 😮
It is a satellite trail- a satellite crossing the image.
why is this object in so many peoples' favorites collections?
What would cause an artifact like that?
#lenticular ? No obvious spiral formation but all starbursts are on a flat plane relative to the galaxy.
to me, it looks like a disturbed barred spiral on an angle to our viewpoint.
#beautiful (did I spell it right?)
overlapping star at core?
probably a messier galaxy

#dustlane
foreground stars- in many cases, supernovas are not visible even if they occurred, because the images are usually taken several days off.
my 2000th galaxy in galaxy zoo to be classified!
both are distant galaxies. With this magnification, the star is not dim enough to see individual planets.
no obvious merger or flyby- must have merged with this one.

Say goodbye to boring dreams
They go without a fight
You'll find they're more than they seem

Looking up in to the sky

Peering deep in the sky
Finding distant places
Sometimes you wonder why
we have not found other races

Through a magnifying lens
Not so much slackness

Yes, but probably not an Active Nucleus Galactic. 😛
#ring
you're actually looking at a star- and it appears to be the orange one.
wow- the first time I have ever gotten an object twice!!!
it's a star.
same thing as AGZ0000zmj

#dustlane
well, as it has spiral arms, I would say it is a fairly large spiral galaxy, if it is one that is.
according to the skyserver, this star has a minimum redshift of 0.025409 😛
amazing #edgeon
it is a lens effect from a bright star just out of the image. It is common, and you can see a spike from the star on the left of the frame.

Not a lense everyone- just a barred spiral galaxy merging in a way that appears lens-like to us.
Oops, I didn't mean "g-lensing" I meant a telescope lens effect 😮
can you see how the central object is very bright with a limited area of blurriness?
#tidaldebris
It looks like a galaxy beside 2 stars.
probably a lens effect, changing the color of the galaxy slightly from the nucleus.

probably just an accidental picture of a part of the star, thinking it is the nucleus of an edge-on galaxy.
so are they both still within the galaxy, or is one in a different location.
no, just a star with a lense effect around it.
#dustlane

it seems the galaxy either has one arm that ends in a lobe- or is merging with the orange dot at top- or possibly a ring.
whoa!
the green beam you see in this image is an artifact caused when a satellite orbiting the earth streaks across the image, causing a line that
only shows up in a single filter because it is so fast. that is what causes this artifact that is very common among galaxy zoo images.
aha, http://skyserver.sdss3.org/dr8/en/tools/chart/chart.asp?ra=340.08372163&dec=7.62350351
