The object is an elongated galaxy, exhibiting a cigar-like morphology. Its light profile appears relatively smooth, lacking prominent spiral arms or distinct features typically associated with disk galaxies. The galaxy presents a color gradient, displaying a reddish hue towards its central region, potentially indicative of an older stellar population or dust obscuration. Towards the outer edges, a subtle blueish tint is observed, hinting at the presence of younger, hotter stars. No signs of ongoing major merging events are apparent, though subtle disturbances might be present. The galaxy's overall structure suggests that it might be an elliptical or lenticular galaxy, transitioning in morphology.
