This galaxy presents as a spiral, inclined towards our line of sight, but not quite edge-on. There's a noticeable bulge component, appearing reddish, indicating an older stellar population concentrated in the core. Extending outwards, we see the beginnings of a disk structure. The disk shows patches of bluer light, suggesting regions of active star formation along what appear to be faint, indistinct spiral arms. There may be some interaction occurring or a minor merger; the galaxy is somewhat asymmetric and not particularly well-defined, with some disruption evident. The light suggests the galaxy is actively forming stars but not at a substantial rate.
