The galaxy presents as a smooth, elongated structure, appearing cigar-shaped. Its morphology is characterized by a central concentration of light that gradually diffuses outwards, lacking any distinct spiral arm features or prominent knots of star formation regions within this image. The color gradient shows a slightly bluer hue towards the outer edges, potentially suggesting the presence of a younger stellar population in the outer regions compared to the more central parts, which appear redder. There is no indication of any significant tidal disturbances or ongoing merging events with other galaxies from what is visible in this imagery. Overall, this galaxy appears to be an elliptical galaxy, potentially an edge-on disk galaxy, with a smooth light distribution and a general lack of discernible substructure.
