You know what....? I'm not exactly sure. I thought it just looked cool.

Stardust1954 would know immediately. I'll ask her to pop over.

I did think it might be the result of a supernova but looking a bit closer I don't think it is.

I see Stardust hasn't answered yet. It might be the Sombrero Galaxy, though I am not 100% sure.

By gosh, I'm right!

tommy's right, that is Sombrero galaxy - Messier 104

Messier 104 is commonly known as the Sombrero galaxy because in visible light, it resembles the broad-brimmed Mexican hat.
