DETAILS NGC4030 is a multi-arm spiral galaxy. Supernova SN 2007aa occurred at the visible edge of the galaxy.
The object labelled 03314 is an asteroid, commonly called Beals. In this composite image the object is slightly elongated and this is due to it's motion during the exposure. Calculations from this composite show it's speed is about 0.7 arcsecs per minute of time.
SDSS J115946.72-010450.6 is a QSO.
