Give peas a chance!

Somehow Hanny's second pea from page 1 never got on a list!

Half65 posted a joke about how when Hanny went to Astrofest, all her peas escaped. http://www.galaxyzooforum.org/index.php?topic=10124.0
But there's truth to the joke! Here's another pea that escaped a list. They're slippery!

The chart is a bit scraggly, but this is a new one. It's the second most redshifted so far. Looks like possibly the color is influenced by camera effect, otherwise this is also the most orange OIII yet. The spectral chart seems too flat and with too dramatic a peak to be a quasar.

Thanks to both of you. I am genuinely enjoying doing this. It's like a science lesson and treasure hunt all in one!
Some more booty....
A real green, from quarkspin in the QSRO thread:

#Thanks a million starry, I didn't go on the pea thread much and recently I haven't been able to find one at all:)

Q

[starry nite]

This is from fai earlier in the thread. It's not emerald, yet it has the OIII peak. Seems that the elevated baseline may have something to do with the color. Is this one somewhat more like a "regular" galaxy than most peas?

Another "outside the box" pea. OIII is lower than OII and the chart isn't the cleanest, but it's green.

An absolutely beautiful purple pea from ElisabethB, here: http://www.galaxyzooforum.org/index.php?topic=9905.0
Correctly identified as a pea by Arralen.

Good thing Dodo didn't start this thread or we might all be collecting Snott-balls, not peas.

Nice clean chart and a redshift very close to the lower-end transition where OIII's go from pinks and purples to green.

Green, from freecell, here: http://www.galaxyzooforum.org/index.php?topic=4011.0
fluffyporcupine and doomrevival both called it a "space pea", so now it's found its home!

Once again, the comprehensive OIII galaxy catalog outgrew its boundaries, so I moved it here:

I can't remember if I have posted in here last night or not, but did I miss something? (Beside the peas trying to escape?)

Now, stay in your room!

The PEAKEEPER has returned! Be good, peas!
