The galaxy appears to be undergoing a merger or interaction with another galaxy. There are two distinct bright concentrations of light, suggestive of two galactic nuclei in close proximity. A faint bridge of luminous material seems to connect these two bright regions, indicating tidal forces are at play. The overall shape is elongated and disturbed, lacking the clear spiral or elliptical morphology of undisturbed galaxies. The color profile shows a mix of yellow and red hues, implying a population of older stars. Some bluer tinges are present, which might signify regions of more recent star formation, perhaps triggered by the ongoing interaction.
