The galaxy presents as a spiral type, inclined at an angle relative to our line of sight. Evidence of spiral arms is visible but somewhat diffuse and not sharply defined, indicating perhaps a flocculent spiral structure. The central bulge appears prominent and has a yellowish color, which may be indicative of an older stellar population. There appears to be a smaller, less pronounced nucleus in the lower region of the galaxy which indicates a past merger or galactic interaction. The disk component shows a bluer color, suggestive of ongoing star formation. Overall, the galaxy exhibits intermediate luminosity and size, situated at a considerable distance with a redshift indicating movement away from our own at a non-negligible fraction of the speed of light.
