NGC 2415

NGC 2415 is a spiral galaxy in the constellation Lynx about 177 million ly from Earth. It spans roughly 43,000 ly, about 43% of our Milky Way's width. It is receding from us at about 3,810 km/s.

Because its light is 177 million ly from home, you are seeing NGC 2415 as it looked roughly 177 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.
