NGC 575

NGC 575 is a spiral galaxy in the constellation Pisces about 147 million ly from Earth. It spans roughly 62,000 ly, about 62% of our Milky Way's width. It is receding from us at about 3,161 km/s.

Because its light is 147 million ly from home, you are seeing NGC 575 as it looked roughly 147 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.
