NGC 3215
NGC 3215 is a barred spiral galaxy in the constellation Draco about 441 million ly from Earth. It spans roughly 120,000 ly, about the width of our Milky Way. It is receding from us at about 9,468 km/s.

Because its light is 441 million ly from home, you are seeing NGC 3215 as it looked roughly 441 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.
