The galaxy appears to be a spiral galaxy, viewed edge-on. A prominent dust lane bisects the galaxy along its major axis, obscuring light from the galactic bulge. The central bulge exhibits a yellowish hue, possibly indicative of an older stellar population. The galactic disk appears relatively smooth, with no easily discernible spiral arm structure, likely due to the edge-on orientation. Faint blue light emanates from the outer edges of the disk, suggesting regions of recent star formation. The galaxy's mass appears moderate and it exhibits a moderate rate of star formation. There is no significant visual evidence of major mergers or tidal disturbances.
