The galaxy appears to be a spiral galaxy, seen edge-on, exhibiting a central bulge that displays a yellowish-white hue, suggesting an older stellar population dominating the region. Fainter, bluish light extending away from the bulge toward the edges of the galaxy suggests regions of ongoing star formation in the galactic disk. The presence of bluer light in the disk also indicates the presence of younger stars. The galaxy shows a degree of smoothness, but also a notable disk like presence. There is no apparent strong tidal disturbance or major merger event.
