NGC 6126

NGC 6126 is an elliptical galaxy in the constellation Corona Borealis about 455 million ly from Earth. It spans roughly 120,000 ly, about the width of our Milky Way. It is receding from us at about 9,759 km/s.

Because its light is 455 million ly from home, you are seeing NGC 6126 as it looked roughly 455 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.
