NGC 6534

NGC 6534 is a galaxy in the constellation Draco about 388 million ly from Earth. It spans roughly 110,000 ly, about the width of our Milky Way. It is receding from us at about 8,332 km/s.

Because its light is 388 million ly from home, you are seeing NGC 6534 as it looked roughly 388 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.
