This galaxy appears to be a spiral galaxy viewed nearly edge-on. A prominent central bulge dominates the structure, exhibiting a yellowish hue indicative of an older stellar population. Fainter bluish light extends outwards from the bulge along the major axis, suggesting the presence of a flattened disk. The disk appears relatively smooth with few distinct features. The color suggests ongoing, albeit mild, star formation in the outer regions. The lack of a clear dust lane is apparent, suggesting minimal obscuration. The overall shape is elongated, with the bulge appearing slightly offset from the geometric center of the extended emission. There is no indication of a major merger or significant tidal disturbances in this image.
