SDSS J095843.77+261055.5 Is there a explanation for the cloud like white area radio source of the yellow GALAXY above the radio contour GALAXY.

It's pretty neat, eh?
My guess - and it's nothing more than that right now - is that it's a combo of noise (one of the 'noise lines' seems to go through this galaxy) and a faint, barely at threshold emission from the elliptical (#jets? no idea).
I've added it to my list of objects/fields to do a contour overlay on ...
(oh, and is the nucleus an AGN?)

The elliptical is dead and red (per its spectrum, so no AGN). However, it does seem like there's some pair-of-jets-like, marginally detected, extended radio emission, centered on the nucleus:
The image in this post was created from sources, and using methods, described in this RGZ Talk post. The object at the center of the image is SDSS J095843.77+261055.5.
