NGC 1483

NGC 1483 is a barred spiral galaxy in the constellation Horologium about 54 million ly from Earth. It spans roughly 29,000 ly, about 29% of our Milky Way's width. It is receding from us at about 1,081 km/s.

Because its light is 54 million ly from home, you are seeing NGC 1483 as it looked roughly 54 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.
