The galaxy presents as a fairly luminous object with an apparent red shift. It exhibits a generally smooth morphology, though there are hints of potential disturbances or substructure within its light distribution. The main body appears somewhat elongated but is not highly cigar-shaped, more tending towards an intermediate form. While a dominant central bulge cannot be definitively confirmed from the image, there does appear to be a slightly brighter concentration towards the center of the object. There's some indication of ongoing star formation in the galaxy.
