The galaxy appears to be in the process of merging or interacting with at least one other galaxy. The main body exhibits a somewhat smooth, centrally concentrated light profile with a bright nucleus. However, the overall shape is irregular and asymmetric, showing signs of significant disturbance. Patches of bluer light are visible, suggestive of younger star formation regions, primarily located outside the central bulge. The presence of tidal tails or other extended structures emanating from the galaxy is unclear in this image, though there appear to be asymmetrical distortions in the galactic halo. The core region exhibits a higher concentration of older stars, indicated by its slightly redder hue compared to the outer regions. Overall, this galaxy displays characteristics of a dynamic system undergoing gravitational interaction, resulting in ongoing star formation and morphological disruption.
