The galaxy appears to be a relatively small, distant object with a redshift of approximately 0.20. Morphologically, it is elongated, cigar shaped, and relatively smooth in appearance. The light distribution suggests it is a disk galaxy seen edge-on. While a bulge may be present, the edge-on view obscures any detailed analysis of its size or structure. No prominent dust lanes or spiral arm features are immediately apparent in this view. There is no strong evidence of ongoing mergers or major disturbances to its morphology. Star formation appears to be occurring, as implied by the modest blue color, although this activity is not indicated by the smoothness. Overall, the galaxy presents as a well-formed spiral disk galaxy at a significant distance.
