The galaxy presented in the image is an edge-on spiral galaxy. The disk is prominently visible, appearing highly elongated. A central bulge is apparent, exhibiting a concentrated luminosity. The bulge appears to be more rounded than boxy. The disk shows a gradual fading in intensity from the central bulge outwards toward the edges, with the galaxy presenting a smooth, relatively undisturbed appearance, suggesting the absence of any ongoing major merger activity or significant tidal disturbances. There are no prominent signs of a strong dust lane bisecting the galaxy. The overall color suggests it may be dominated by an older stellar population.
