This galaxy exhibits an elongated, cigar-like morphology. The central bulge appears bright and somewhat diffuse, with a yellowish hue, suggesting a population of older stars. Surrounding the bulge is a flattened, extended disk. The disk shows hints of a spiral structure, though it is not well-defined, with bluish regions indicating the presence of younger, hotter stars and ongoing star formation. The galaxy's overall shape indicates that it is viewed at an edge-on or nearly edge-on inclination relative to our line of sight. There is some evidence of dust lanes within the disk, obscuring light from the bulge. The galaxy appears relatively isolated with no obvious signs of interaction.
