The galaxy presents as an elongated, cigar-shaped structure. Its light profile appears relatively smooth across the major axis, exhibiting a diffuse, low-contrast brightness gradient outwards from a somewhat brighter central region. The galaxy's color appears primarily blue or cyan. There is a slight hint of asymmetry in the outer regions of the galaxy. The image does not suggest any signs of ongoing major merger activity or strong tidal disruptions, but minor disturbances may be present. The overall morphology suggests the object is a spiral galaxy viewed edge-on, or an elliptical galaxy with a prolate spheroid shape.
