The galaxy presents as an elongated, cigar-shaped structure. It displays a smooth, relatively featureless morphology, suggesting a significant fraction of its light originates from an older stellar population. There's a subtle color gradient visible, with the central region appearing somewhat yellower or redder than the outer regions. This could indicate a higher concentration of older, redder stars towards the center, as well as the likely presence of dust absorption. The galaxy exhibits a moderate level of star formation, as evidenced by the blue tint of its outer regions, but a significant fraction of the galaxy appears quiescent. There are hints of minor disturbances, but overall the galaxy appears relatively isolated and unperturbed. The galaxy does not appear to be undergoing any major merging events.
