To me....looks like a whole FISH.... behind the dust lane is the rest of the body...in Ann's heart nebula image, it looks like it is swimming through it....

Re: APOD: M82: Galaxy with a Supergalactic Wind (2019 Jul 23)
Evidently it has had a lot of gas disrupted maybe from brushes with M81...there does not seem to be much gas INSIDE M82...or it would show up in the image as it was specifically photographed. Not disputing the gas being pushed out... It is like the, other-wise, DUST LANES are being ripped off M82......

Re: APOD: Moonquakes Surprisingly Common (2019 Jul 21)
I wonder if there would be enough cavern collapses to account for it...
I wonder if tidal forces from Earth... as The Moon produces Tides on Earth... THAT is a real constant ever changing pressure... a transference of Energy.
Or has that already been ruled out...

Good image of the "Whale Galaxy"... clicking on the image, and looking at the larger image and the lower left area...it looks to me to be some sort of merger going on...I know there are many forms of Irregulars...some are Diffuse, and devoid of mass... but this does not look like the case....

Very interesting. I wonder what the arc and filaments are... they remind me of "Bow Shocks" from stars or something, but they look different, almost like lightning... and so many of them... a magnetic thing? they appear aligned....
