NGC 1267

NGC 1267 is an elliptical galaxy in the constellation Perseus about 246 million ly from Earth. It spans roughly 80,000 ly, about 80% of our Milky Way's width. It is receding from us at about 5,059 km/s.

Because its light is 246 million ly from home, you are seeing NGC 1267 as it looked roughly 246 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.
