The galaxy appears to be undergoing a significant interaction or merger event. Evident is a disturbed morphology, with luminous knots or clumps of star formation. There is an indication of tidal features or tails extending outwards, suggesting gravitational disruption. The central region is somewhat amorphous and difficult to define, potentially obscured by dust or a high concentration of stars. Overall the color suggests intermediate age stellar populations, though some regions appear bluer, perhaps indicative of recent star formation.
