NGC 1414

NGC 1414 is a barred spiral galaxy in the constellation Eridanus about 74 million ly from Earth. It spans roughly 37,000 ly, about 37% of our Milky Way's width. It is receding from us at about 1,555 km/s.

Because its light is 74 million ly from home, you are seeing NGC 1414 as it looked roughly 74 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.
