That's a good question. I notice that's the only object that looks kind of 3D in the whole picture. So I am wondering whether the picture was manipulated somehow or this is a glitch in the camera, a microscopic particle? I am not an expert. It could be a space object, but what kind of? It's spherical and looks smooth - could it be one of the moons in the Solar System? Or a dwarf planet? Could it have this 3D look because it's very close to the telescope compared to other objects in the background?

i have done some research for the same cordinates and i couldnt find anything there, also Chat gpt sugested its either glitch in the camera (Sensor Artifact) or some small object close to earth

Black object in the middle? Kind of 3D'ish? Either my monitor sucks or I'm blind. I see nothing but stars/galaxies and dark space in your screenshot.

Edit: Thanks, now I see it.

With any luck, it's the Death Star from Star Wars.
Or the Vogons.

Nice knowing you all!
