NGC 3513

NGC 3513 is a barred spiral galaxy in the constellation Crater about 56 million ly from Earth. It spans roughly 46,000 ly, about 46% of our Milky Way's width. It is receding from us at about 1,190 km/s.

Because its light is 56 million ly from home, you are seeing NGC 3513 as it looked roughly 56 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.
