NGC 5989

NGC 5989 is a spiral galaxy in the constellation Draco about 134 million ly from Earth. It spans roughly 34,000 ly, about 34% of our Milky Way's width. It is receding from us at about 2,853 km/s.

Because its light is 134 million ly from home, you are seeing NGC 5989 as it looked roughly 134 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.
