The galaxy presents as a disk-shaped object viewed at a significant angle, appearing elongated, almost cigar-shaped. A bright central bulge is noticeable, suggesting a substantial population of older stars. The disk exhibits a bluer hue, indicative of ongoing star formation. There may be some disturbances present in the outer disk; it is possible that the galaxy could be merging with a smaller companion. Based on the apparent color profile, there is a low rate of ongoing star formation.
