This galaxy appears to be a spiral galaxy, seen nearly edge-on. The central bulge is prominent and appears smooth, exhibiting a yellowish hue suggestive of an older stellar population. The disk itself is highly inclined, nearly perpendicular to our line of sight. There is some asymmetry in the dust lanes, and a tidal tail, indicating a possible past interaction or merger event. There is a very clear sign of tidal disruption. The morphology is generally consistent with a massive galaxy. Star formation appears suppressed.
