The galaxy appears to be undergoing a merger. There is an apparent core of the galaxy that is quite smooth and round. There also appears to be a secondary core to the right that has a yellow hue. The main body of the galaxy is slightly elongated and presents with no discernible disk structure. Based on its redshift, the galaxy is at a considerable distance. The light suggests the galaxy is composed of older stellar populations with relatively low ongoing star formation. The tidal features suggest a major interaction, likely a significant merger event.
