This galaxy appears to be a relatively smooth, elliptical system, although a faint disk-like structure may be present. The color gradient suggests a moderate amount of ongoing star formation, more concentrated towards the center. The galaxy exhibits a somewhat elongated morphology, resembling a cigar shape. There is no obvious evidence of major disturbances or mergers in this image, though minor tidal features cannot be ruled out. The galaxy appears to be a fairly massive system with a notable population of young, actively star-forming stars, considering its size and shape.
