NGC 2860

NGC 2860 is a barred spiral galaxy in the constellation Lynx about 197 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 4,247 km/s.

Because its light is 197 million ly from home, you are seeing NGC 2860 as it looked roughly 197 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.
