The galaxy appears to be a spiral, observed nearly edge-on. A prominent dust lane bisects the galaxy along its major axis, obscuring a significant portion of the starlight. The galactic bulge is not clearly defined, suggesting it is relatively small. The disk exhibits a blueish hue, possibly indicating the presence of younger, hotter stars and ongoing star formation, particularly in the outer regions. The galaxy displays no apparent signs of major tidal disturbances or mergers, though there might be some minor irregularities in the disk shape. The overall structure looks relatively smooth, which could indicate that this is a more evolved galaxy with reduced star formation rates compared to younger starburst galaxies.
