This galaxy exhibits a somewhat elongated, cigar-shaped morphology. The primary body of the galaxy displays a smooth appearance, with a high degree of central concentration. The light is predominantly bluish in color, indicating a population of relatively young, hot stars. This suggests that the galaxy is currently undergoing, or has recently undergone, active star formation. There is a slight distortion or minor disturbance noticeable on one side of the galaxy; this could be due to a tidal interaction with a nearby galaxy, or internal dynamics. On one edge of the galaxy, there appears to be a small, reddish patch which could represent an area of dust obscuration, or a small region of older stars. The galaxy is a relatively low-mass system, with a rate of star formation that has been somewhat suppressed in the past.
