The galaxy appears to be composed of two distinct components: a central, luminous spheroid and a more diffuse, elongated structure extending outwards. The central spheroid exhibits a high surface brightness and a yellowish-white hue. The elongated structure displays a bluer color. It also exhibits subtle variations in brightness along its length, suggesting the presence of spiral arm-like features. There is no clear indication of recent major mergers, but there is a possibility of tidal disturbance present in the extended structure. The central spheroid is likely composed of older stellar populations, with a relatively low rate of star formation. The extended structure, with its bluer color, likely contains a younger stellar population and may be undergoing some degree of star formation. The overall shape of the galaxy appears to be that of a cigar-shaped structure.
