Sometimes things in the archive go unprocessed because they are, well, boring. There are probably at least a dozen of these elliptical galaxies sitting in there--good data and good images--but visually uninspiring.

| Description |
English: Sometimes things in the archive go unprocessed because they are, well, boring. There are probably at least a dozen of these elliptical galaxies sitting in there--good data and good images--but visually uninspiring. These are the most common types of galaxies, though. In this one it looks like there's still a small amount of star formation going on in the slightly bluer area on the left side. A great lecture I've found on not only elliptical galaxies but on all sorts of galaxies is here. Professor Crawford talks about colliding galaxies but there is a lot of information on the evolution of galaxies and how we arrive at big, old ellipticals.
