The galaxy appears as a relatively smooth, elongated structure. Its color profile is predominantly blue, suggesting the presence of a significant population of young, hot stars. There's a slight color gradient from the center outwards, but the overall color remains consistent across the galaxy. No distinct spiral arms or prominent dust lanes are visible, hinting towards a relatively undisturbed or late-type morphology. The galaxy does not appear to be undergoing any major merger events, though the possibility of minor interactions cannot be ruled out based on this image alone. Given its overall smooth appearance and shape, this galaxy may be an elliptical or lenticular type.
