The galaxy presents as a disk galaxy, viewed at an oblique angle, not quite edge-on. A distinct bulge component is observed, exhibiting a smoother, more concentrated light profile. The disk shows some subtle features suggestive of spiral arms or dust lanes, although the image resolution limits detailed characterization. Color gradients are present, with the central bulge appearing more red/yellow, indicative of an older stellar population, while the disk appears slightly bluer, suggestive of ongoing star formation. There appears to be some interaction or merging event occurring. This galaxy has an estimated redshift of 0.284631.
