NGC 2369B

NGC 2369B is a barred spiral galaxy in the constellation Carina about 142 million ly from Earth. It spans roughly 61,000 ly, about 61% of our Milky Way's width. The light reaching us tonight left it about 142 million years ago.

Because its light is 142 million ly from home, you are seeing NGC 2369B as it looked roughly 142 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.
