This galaxy appears to be a spiral galaxy, viewed edge-on. A prominent dust lane bisects the galaxy along its major axis, obscuring a portion of the stellar population. The central bulge is distinctly visible, and seems to have a rounded appearance. There is very little evidence of any ongoing mergers or significant disturbances in the galaxy's structure. Based on its color profile, it is likely undergoing moderate star formation. The disk appears extended and relatively thin, which is consistent with the high probability it is edge-on.
