NGC 507

NGC 507 is an elliptical galaxy in the constellation Pisces about 230 million ly from Earth. It spans roughly 160,000 ly, about 1.6 times the width of our Milky Way. It is receding from us at about 4,924 km/s.

Because its light is 230 million ly from home, you are seeing NGC 507 as it looked roughly 230 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.
