NGC 4332

NGC 4332 is a barred spiral galaxy in the constellation Draco about 129 million ly from Earth. It spans roughly 74,000 ly, about 74% of our Milky Way's width. It is receding from us at about 2,870 km/s.

Because its light is 129 million ly from home, you are seeing NGC 4332 as it looked roughly 129 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.
