The galaxy appears to be in the late stages of a merger with another galaxy. Two distinct, bright, yellowish-orange concentrations of light are present, suggesting two galactic nuclei. The overall morphology is disturbed, lacking a clear spiral or elliptical structure, and is slightly elongated. There is evidence of diffuse, fainter light surrounding the two nuclei, perhaps representing tidal debris or material being stripped from the interacting galaxies. The color suggests a population of older stars, with little evidence of blue light indicative of ongoing star formation. It is likely a relatively massive system.
