NGC 2634A

NGC 2634A is a barred spiral galaxy in the constellation Camelopardalis about 97 million ly from Earth. It spans roughly 34,000 ly, about 34% of our Milky Way's width. The light reaching us tonight left it about 97 million years ago.

Because its light is 97 million ly from home, you are seeing NGC 2634A as it looked roughly 97 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.
