Hoag’s Object is a non-typical galaxy of the type known as a ring galaxy. The galaxy is named after Arthur Hoag who discovered it in 1950 and identified it as either a planetary nebula or a peculiar galaxy with eight billion stars.
The Nonbarred Double-Ringed Galaxy, PGC 1000714
Hoag-type galaxies are rare peculiar systems which bear strong resemblance to Hoag’s Object with an elliptical-like core, a detached outer ring, and no signs of a bar or stellar disk.

Does each one have a planet somewhere that thinks God did it all?

PGC 1000714 is seen on the right hand side of this image. I, personally, don’t find the evidence of the second inner ring very convincing.

The great god Arkleseizure?

I doubt that there are many planets that can think in the Universe.

As far as we know God only put life on earth.
He may have put life elsewhere but we don’t know, we just don’t know what He did.
For all we know He might be creating another Universe right now, far far away in a twilight zone of darkness and light.

Or she might be trying to figure out how to stop all this accelerating expansion of space that appeared from nowhere, and is not what she planned at all, at all.
