The galaxy appears to be an elliptical galaxy, characterized by a smooth, concentrated light distribution. It exhibits a near-spherical morphology, with a slight elongation along one axis, deviating minimally from a perfect circular shape. The galaxy's color is predominantly yellowish-orange, suggesting an older stellar population with a relative lack of ongoing star formation. There's no discernible spiral arm structure or prominent dust lanes visible in this image. The absence of such features is consistent with the classification of an elliptical galaxy, which typically consists of older stars and lower rates of star formation compared to spiral galaxies. There is no indication of any significant merger events or tidal disturbances. The galaxy appears relatively undisturbed.
