This galaxy appears to be in a stage of interaction, possibly a merger. There are two distinct, bright nuclei that suggest at least two galaxies are involved. The overall shape is somewhat irregular, showing a deviation from a simple elliptical or spiral form. The light distribution is dominated by redder wavelengths, suggesting an older stellar population. The structure surrounding the nuclei is diffuse, indicating tidal disruption and potential star formation triggered by the interaction. A significant portion of the galaxy appears smooth and well-blended, while there are also hints of disrupted features. There are also indications of possible tidal tails.
