Based on the fuzzy appearance, it is likely that this galaxy is a significant distance away from the observer. The galaxy appears to be undergoing or have undergone some kind of interaction or merging event due to the irregular shape and multiple luminous centers that can be seen. The mass of this galaxy appears to be considerable. The rate of star formation within the galaxy appears relatively low.
