The galaxy presents as an elongated, cigar-shaped object with a relatively smooth overall appearance. There is a brighter central region with a slightly bluer hue, fading into more diffuse and less luminous edges. The object appears largely undisturbed with potentially a minor asymmetry or disturbance in its structure on the right side. There are signs of ongoing star formation, especially concentrated in the central region which exhibits a bluer color suggestive of younger, hotter stars. The outer regions appear redder, potentially indicating older stellar populations. The overall morphology suggests a late-type spiral galaxy or a dwarf galaxy, although the smoothness implies a more spheroid distribution of stars.
