NGC 4616

NGC 4616 is an elliptical galaxy in the constellation Centaurus about 210 million ly from Earth. It spans roughly 80,000 ly, about 80% of our Milky Way's width. It is receding from us at about 4,586 km/s.

Because its light is 210 million ly from home, you are seeing NGC 4616 as it looked roughly 210 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.
