This galaxy appears to be a disk galaxy seen edge-on. There is a central bulge region which looks to be quite prominent and elongated. The color is consistent with an older stellar population, showing slightly redder hues, but there is still an obvious light blue tint in the disk, indicating some ongoing star formation. The disk appears relatively smooth, with no obvious signs of spiral arm structure in the visible spectrum. There is no evidence of a significant dust lane. There also does not appear to be any major mergers or disturbances affecting its structure.
