The galaxy presents as a disk galaxy seen almost perfectly edge-on. There is a central bulge region that appears to be primarily composed of older stars giving off a yellow-orange glow. The disk appears to be warped to some extent. Dust lanes are visible, obscuring some of the light from stars within the disk. Hints of blue/green star formation regions are observed in the disk, indicating ongoing star formation. The galaxy appears to have a relatively high mass with a moderate rate of star formation. There is also evidence suggesting a possible minor disturbance or tidal interaction occurring at one end of the galaxy, but appears to be otherwise undisturbed. The galaxy is significantly larger than the average galaxy.
