NGC 5410

NGC 5410 is a spiral galaxy in the constellation Canes Venatici about 174 million ly from Earth. It spans roughly 58,000 ly, about 58% of our Milky Way's width. It is receding from us at about 3,738 km/s.

Because its light is 174 million ly from home, you are seeing NGC 5410 as it looked roughly 174 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.
