NGC 1796B

NGC 1796B is a barred spiral galaxy in the constellation Dorado about 268 million ly from Earth. It spans roughly 87,000 ly, about the width of our Milky Way. It is receding from us at about 5,758 km/s.

Because its light is 268 million ly from home, you are seeing NGC 1796B as it looked roughly 268 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.
