NGC 3362
NGC 3362 is a spiral galaxy in the constellation Leo about 386 million ly from Earth. It spans roughly 150,000 ly, about the width of our Milky Way. It is receding from us at about 8,322 km/s.

Because its light is 386 million ly from home, you are seeing NGC 3362 as it looked roughly 386 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.
