NGC 3044 is a

major axis aligned along a position angle of 113°.[7] It is a relatively isolated galaxy with no nearby companions.[7] R. B. Tully in 1988 assigned it as a member of the widely displaced Leo Cloud.[3]

The

plane of the sky.[12] The disk appears lob-sided and disturbed, suggesting a recent merger or interaction. There is a diffuse ionized gas extending to 1 kpc above the center of the plane.[7]

The stars in the galaxy have a combined mass of approximately 1.01×1010 M☉,[6] and the star formation rate is 2.77 M☉·yr–1.[6] The total mass of the atomic gas in this galaxy is 3.5×109 M☉,[7] and it has a dust mass of 1.6×108 M☉.[3] The galaxy as a whole has a dynamic mass of 6.4×1010 M☉.[7]
