Interesting Multiple? Extended? & Blended?

  • Reyajh by Reyajh

    Curious image. 1st I've seen like this. Doesn't appear round in the DSS images but I'm thinking multiples there extended and blended. SED data doesn't appear to be a galaxy but I'm not real sure about how to interpret that data yet. Any clarification is greatly appreciated!!

    This is simply a mess. It's a star blended by multiple objects and extended beyond circle in WISE images. You'll see mess like this quite often, because this batch of data is close to the Galactic plane.
