NGC 2150

NGC 2150 is a spiral galaxy in the constellation Dorado about 210 million ly from Earth. It spans roughly 70,000 ly, about 70% of our Milky Way's width. It is receding from us at about 4,440 km/s.

Because its light is 210 million ly from home, you are seeing NGC 2150 as it looked roughly 210 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.
