NGC 2672

NGC 2672 is an elliptical galaxy in the constellation Cancer about 202 million ly from Earth. It spans roughly 190,000 ly, about 1.9 times the width of our Milky Way. It is receding from us at about 4,255 km/s.

Because its light is 202 million ly from home, you are seeing NGC 2672 as it looked roughly 202 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.
