NGC 7764A

Another collisional mess from Julianne Dalcanton's voluminous interacting galaxies program. The weird galaxies to the right are supposed to look like a Star Trek ship, but I'm not sure I see it. Definitely one of those things that goes away after more than a glance. At this point I think it looks like someone tossing a pizza dough.
