This galaxy appears to be a relatively smooth, elongated object with a pronounced central bulge. The bulge exhibits a yellow-orange hue, indicating a population of older stars. Extending outwards from the bulge is a fainter, disk-like structure that appears flattened. The disk shows hints of redder and bluer regions, perhaps indicating areas of ongoing star formation, although the disk is relatively featureless. The galaxy's overall shape is cigar-like. There is little to no evidence of spiral arms. There might be some minor disturbances within the galaxy, but overall, there are no strong indications of a major merger or significant interaction with another galaxy.
