Another disturbed galaxy with a vaguely disk-like, spiral shape. This one takes up a smaller footprint on the detector and appears less detailed because of this. A coincidentally placed Milky Way star sits near the brightest part of the galaxy.

Summary edit

Description
English: Another disturbed galaxy with a vaguely disk-like, spiral shape. This one takes up a smaller footprint on the detector and appears less detailed because of this. A coincidentally placed Milky Way star sits near the brightest part of the galaxy. One might be tempted to think it is some unusual active nucleus in a low mass galaxy, but one would be wrong... (I thought it was one, at first.)
