This galaxy presents as a lenticular or possibly a spiral galaxy seen nearly edge-on. A central bulge is visible, appearing yellowish-orange in color, suggesting an older stellar population. Extending outwards from the bulge, a disk structure can be discerned. The disk exhibits a subtle blueish tint, hinting at the presence of younger, hotter stars and potential star formation regions, albeit at a low rate. The galaxy's overall shape is elongated, with an axial ratio that classifies it as cigar-shaped, which could be a function of the viewing angle. There may be faint signs of tidal interactions, or minor disturbances in the disk region, though the overall morphology appears largely undisturbed, with no major merging events apparent. The galaxy appears relatively smooth in structure, lacking prominent spiral arms or distinct features. The light from this galaxy has been redshifted, indicating that it is moving away from us at a significant fraction of the speed of light. This suggests that the galaxy is located at a considerable cosmological distance.
