NGC 3347C

NGC 3347C is a spiral galaxy in the constellation Antlia about 124 million ly from Earth. It spans roughly 49,000 ly, about 49% of our Milky Way's width. The light reaching us tonight left it about 124 million years ago.

Because its light is 124 million ly from home, you are seeing NGC 3347C as it looked roughly 124 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.
