The galaxy appears to be undergoing a significant merger event. The primary component presents a relatively smooth, somewhat rounded morphology, suggesting a spheroid-dominated structure. A secondary, distinct component is visible to the upper right of the primary body. This secondary structure displays a more irregular and disturbed morphology, with an extended tidal feature emanating from it, indicating a strong gravitational interaction. The color distribution suggests a mix of stellar populations, with the core region exhibiting a yellowish hue indicative of older, redder stars, while the tidal feature appears redder, potentially signifying on-going star formation or dust obscuration. Overall, the system exhibits characteristics typical of a major merger in progress, resulting in significant morphological disturbances and potentially triggering episodes of star formation within the interacting components.
