NGC 2206

NGC 2206 is a barred spiral galaxy in the constellation Canis Major about 294 million ly from Earth. It spans roughly 210,000 ly, about 2.1 times the width of our Milky Way. It is receding from us at about 6,258 km/s.

Because its light is 294 million ly from home, you are seeing NGC 2206 as it looked roughly 294 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.
