NGC 1875

NGC 1875 is an elliptical galaxy in the constellation Orion about 426 million ly from Earth. It spans roughly 98,000 ly, about the width of our Milky Way. It is receding from us at about 8,997 km/s.

Because its light is 426 million ly from home, you are seeing NGC 1875 as it looked roughly 426 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.
