The galaxy appears to be a spiral galaxy, observed face-on. Its color suggests ongoing star formation, with a bluish hue apparent throughout the spiral arms. The arms themselves are tightly wound around a moderately sized central bulge that is a bright yellow-white color. There does not seem to be a bar structure present. The spiral arms show significant structure, with noticeable clumping that suggests active star forming regions. There does not appear to be any significant tidal disturbance, or any signs of a major merger.
