NGC 3258E

NGC 3258E is a barred spiral galaxy in the constellation Antlia about 143 million ly from Earth. It spans roughly 65,000 ly, about 65% of our Milky Way's width. The light reaching us tonight left it about 143 million years ago.

Because its light is 143 million ly from home, you are seeing NGC 3258E as it looked roughly 143 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.
