This galaxy appears to be a relatively smooth, elongated elliptical galaxy. The core exhibits a distinct reddish hue, suggesting a population of older, cooler stars. Fainter blue light is seen emanating from the area surrounding the core, indicating the presence of a younger, hotter population of stars. The galaxy's shape is noticeably cigar-shaped, with no discernible spiral arms or bar structure. There's no strong evidence of ongoing major mergers or significant tidal disturbances based on the observed morphology. Overall, this galaxy seems to be a stable, evolved system with a moderate stellar mass and a low star formation rate.
