NGC 5777

NGC 5777 is a barred spiral galaxy in the constellation Draco about 100 million ly from Earth. It spans roughly 86,000 ly, about the width of our Milky Way. It is receding from us at about 2,126 km/s.

Because its light is 100 million ly from home, you are seeing NGC 5777 as it looked roughly 100 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.
