This galaxy presents as a flattened, elongated structure, indicating an edge-on or nearly edge-on orientation relative to our line of sight. A prominent dust lane appears to bisect the galaxy along its major axis, obscuring light from the galactic plane. The central bulge seems relatively small or non-existent, and there doesn't appear to be a classical spheroidal component. The galaxy exhibits a general blue tint indicative of recent star formation, particularly at the edges. There are no signs of any major mergers or significant tidal disturbances.
