NGC 3016
NGC 3016 is a barred spiral galaxy in the constellation Leo about 417 million ly from Earth. It spans roughly 140,000 ly, about the width of our Milky Way. It is receding from us at about 8,869 km/s.

Because its light is 417 million ly from home, you are seeing NGC 3016 as it looked roughly 417 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.
