This galaxy presents as a highly elongated, cigar-shaped object. A smooth, diffuse light dominates its morphology, with a concentration of luminosity towards the central region. While the overall appearance is smooth, subtle color variations suggest possible underlying structure. A faint blueish hue is present in the outer regions, potentially indicative of recent star formation. Conversely, the central bulge exhibits a yellowish-red color, likely due to a population of older, redder stars. No strong evidence of spiral arms or distinct features are readily apparent, though a slight asymmetry hints at possible tidal interactions or recent minor mergers. Overall, it appears to be an elliptical galaxy with a relatively low ongoing star formation rate.
