NGC 5413

NGC 5413 is an elliptical galaxy in the constellation Draco about 448 million ly from Earth. It spans roughly 170,000 ly, about 1.7 times the width of our Milky Way. It is receding from us at about 9,634 km/s.

Because its light is 448 million ly from home, you are seeing NGC 5413 as it looked roughly 448 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.
