Description:
Tiny, faint galaxy with a strong elongation to the SW-NE direction. Its core is definitely brighter but instead of featuring a star-like core, it displays a little central disk. To the North and South of this I can see two arcs that are somewhat brighter than the surface of the galaxy, although I'm not sure if what I see is only an illusion. According to a check I've done later, I've only witnessed the central part of this object.
