The galaxy appears to be a relatively smooth, elongated structure. Its dominant color is a yellowish-orange, suggesting a population of older stars. There is a hint of bluer light, possibly from younger stars, at the edges of the galaxy. No prominent spiral arms or a distinct disk structure are visible. The galaxy's shape is more cigar-like than round, which could indicate it is an elliptical galaxy. There's no obvious indication of ongoing merging activity, although there could be minor disturbances not readily apparent at this resolution.
