ARG00026v8 - faint blue edge-on disk galaxy as host of doublelobes?

    SDSS J141312.26+224313.8, at z_ph 0.176±0.0686/0.049±0.0441, would likely appear green if it were at ~the same redshift as noted green hosts. It's clearly not a boring elliptical:

    But is it the host of the apparent doublelobe radio emission? Hard to say ...

    Boilerplate: SDSS image per http://skyservice.pha.jhu.edu/DR10/ImgCutout/getjpeg.aspx, FIRST (red) contours derived from the FITS file produced using SkyView with Python code described in this RGZ Talk thread. Image center (J2000.0) is the galaxy SDSS J141312.26+224313.8; "z_ph" its SDSS photometric redshift.
