Totally Grouse job on the Imaging side of things there too Mike
Re: Spiral screw type formation ; has me wondering, just wondering, im no expert, but I wonder if at all, millions of years ago whether this system may have had a 'merger' ? possibly formed a double nucleus, which may have, by now, (as in, the light we're seeing now) had before the necleus's joined, but the outer arms will always be kinda separated as they look in the image of yours ? weird trying to explain & Not needs an answer,, but a very captivating Image none the less
Ooo-k, well after using my trusty Google Bob-Translator ...I recon a merger could well be in the mix here, or maybe a by pass..?

Joint thing...aaah IIII get it (astronomers - very funny people)

Cheers Mate
