This galaxy appears to be a spiral galaxy, viewed edge-on. There is a central bulge that is bright and densely populated with older stars, giving it a yellowish hue. The disk is relatively thin and elongated.  There are hints of blue within the disk, which could be from the presence of younger, hotter stars. There appears to be little dust obscuring the disk, though this is difficult to fully assess given the edge-on view. The galaxy shows no signs of significant tidal disturbances or ongoing mergers. The spiral arms are not clearly visible, and the overall structure is smooth, suggesting a relatively evolved spiral galaxy with a low star formation rate.
