The galaxy presents an elongated morphology, suggesting a possible disk galaxy viewed at an angle. Its color profile displays a central concentration of yellow-white light, potentially indicating a bulge dominated by older stellar populations. There is a suggestion of a disturbance or interaction, indicated by the extended, asymmetric shape. A fainter, reddish region is seen offset from the main body which is also a strong indication of an ongoing merging event. This also indicates some level of ongoing star formation. Given the features of a bulge-like central region coupled with evidence of an interaction, this is possibly the merging of a spiral galaxy with a smaller galaxy.
