The galaxy exhibits a pronounced elongated, cigar-like shape. Its light profile appears relatively smooth, lacking any obvious spiral arm structure or distinct features. The central bulge region presents a yellowish hue, suggesting the presence of an older stellar population. The outer regions of the galaxy display a bluer tint, indicative of ongoing or recent star formation. The dust content seems to be low, considering the limited color variation. The galaxy’s disk is notably thin and appears to be viewed nearly edge-on.
