The galaxy presents as an edge-on spiral, displaying a prominent, flattened disk structure. The dust lane, though not sharply defined, is implied by the slightly darker band bisecting the galaxy along its major axis, obscuring some of the light from the galactic center. The central bulge appears somewhat elongated. The disk exhibits a bluer hue, suggesting the presence of ongoing star formation and a population of younger, hotter stars. No distinct spiral arms are apparent, likely due to the viewing angle. The overall smoothness of the light distribution suggests a relatively quiescent galaxy, though some localized star formation is indicated by the blue color. There is no visible evidence of a major merger event or significant tidal disturbances. The morphology suggests a spiral galaxy with a relatively high inclination to our line of sight.
