NGC 2470

NGC 2470 is a spiral galaxy in the constellation Canis Minor about 191 million ly from Earth. It spans roughly 110,000 ly, about the width of our Milky Way. It is receding from us at about 4,114 km/s.

Because its light is 191 million ly from home, you are seeing NGC 2470 as it looked roughly 191 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.
