NGC 60
NGC 60 is a spiral galaxy in the constellation Pisces about 550 million ly from Earth. It spans roughly 160,000 ly, about 1.6 times the width of our Milky Way. The light reaching us tonight left it about 550 million years ago.

Because its light is 550 million ly from home, you are seeing NGC 60 as it looked roughly 550 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.
