The galaxy presents an elongated morphology, approximating a cigar shape. The primary body of the galaxy exhibits a diffuse, smooth texture, but has noticeable features and disturbances within its disk. One end displays a concentration of light, possibly indicative of a central bulge or a region of enhanced star formation. The color distribution indicates variation within the galaxy. The central region emits light more towards the redder end of the spectrum. The rest of the galaxy displays bluer wavelengths. This would indicate younger, hotter stars.
