This galaxy appears to be a relatively compact object. Its light profile suggests it's somewhat elliptical in shape, though not perfectly spherical; it tends towards being classified between perfectly round and oblong. The galaxy's core presents a concentrated luminosity, decreasing gradually towards its apparent edges. The color profile suggests a population of older stars dominating the galaxy's stellar content; there's an indication of a moderate amount of star formation, but it doesn't seem to be a significant contributor to the overall color. There are no obvious signs of a major ongoing merger, though minor disturbances cannot be ruled out based on this image alone. The galaxy presents an overall smooth texture, with no particularly distinct features or spiral arm structures visible at this resolution. Its moderate size indicates that it's neither a dwarf galaxy nor an exceptionally large elliptical.
