    thread.     VLASS contours in yellow.

    The host for the emission appears to be SDSS J002427.22+083759.2, which has a z_ph=0.559 ± 0.0492. This object has radio references in NED and SIMBAD, and an ALLWISE reference, ALLWISE J002427.20+083759.1. This galaxy is positioned in the middle of the lobes.

    What may be very cool about this source is the possibility that the IGM of the foreground galaxy is distorting the N lobe (via dispersion)! 😃

    This sort of thing certainly happens - it's a very big universe - but I've yet to see any papers on it, in the literature ...
