IC 1193

IC 1193 is a lenticular galaxy in the constellation Hercules about 564 million ly from Earth. It spans roughly 130,000 ly, about the width of our Milky Way. It is receding from us at about 12,013 km/s.

Because its light is 564 million ly from home, you are seeing IC 1193 as it looked roughly 564 million years ago. The photons left before that much of history had passed, and are only now reaching us. This distance is estimated from the galaxy's redshift, so the lookback time is approximate.
