IC 3267

IC 3267 is a spiral galaxy in the constellation Virgo about 60 million ly from Earth. It spans roughly 21,000 ly, about 21% of our Milky Way's width. It is receding from us at about 2,148 km/s.

Because its light is 60 million ly from home, you are seeing IC 3267 as it looked roughly 60 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.
