NGC 1703

NGC 1703 is a barred spiral galaxy in the constellation Dorado about 71 million ly from Earth. It spans roughly 56,000 ly, about 56% of our Milky Way's width. It is receding from us at about 1,526 km/s.

Because its light is 71 million ly from home, you are seeing NGC 1703 as it looked roughly 71 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.
