The galaxy appears to be in the process of merging or interacting with another galaxy. There is evidence of disturbed morphology, with tidal features or tails extending from the main body. The main galaxy is a generally smooth, roundish shape but is visibly distorted. The secondary object may be a smaller galaxy in the process of being tidally disrupted. Colors suggest the presence of both older stellar populations as well as regions of more recent star formation. The system may be relatively distant, as the features are somewhat blurred, and there is a redshift of approximately 0.25.
