NGC 3124

NGC 3124 is a barred spiral galaxy in the constellation Hydra about 167 million ly from Earth. It spans roughly 130,000 ly, about the width of our Milky Way. It is receding from us at about 3,351 km/s.

Because its light is 167 million ly from home, you are seeing NGC 3124 as it looked roughly 167 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.
