This galaxy appears to be a relatively smooth, disk-shaped galaxy, oriented nearly edge-on with respect to our line of sight. It exhibits a prominent central bulge, which appears yellowish, suggesting a population of older stars. Fainter bluish hues are visible along the outer edges of the disk, indicating the presence of younger, hotter stars and potential star-forming regions. The galaxy appears undisturbed, with no obvious signs of a major merger event. It has a cigar-like shape, with a length roughly twice its width. There are no large distortions or tidal tails visible. Overall, the galaxy appears to be a relatively isolated and well-defined system.
