The galaxy appears to be a spiral galaxy, though at its distance it is difficult to discern any defined spiral arms. The central bulge appears yellowish-red, indicating an older stellar population, as well as significant dust obscuration. There is a disk with visible color variation, which may suggest some degree of recent star formation. This is evident in the bluer hues at the galaxy's edges. There is no distinct core in the center, suggesting it's a barred spiral. The galaxy's shape is generally elongated. There is some morphological disturbance, possibly due to a minor merger event with a smaller satellite galaxy. Overall, the galaxy seems to be in a transitional phase, not fully quiescent but also not undergoing intense starburst activity.
