NGC 2655

NGC 2655 is a lenticular galaxy in the constellation Camelopardalis about 66 million ly from Earth. It spans roughly 75,000 ly, about 75% of our Milky Way's width. It is receding from us at about 1,407 km/s.

Because its light is 66 million ly from home, you are seeing NGC 2655 as it looked roughly 66 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.
