NGC 6902A

NGC 6902A is a barred spiral galaxy in the constellation Sagittarius about 776 million ly from Earth. It spans roughly 220,000 ly, about 2.2 times the width of our Milky Way. It is receding from us at about 16,650 km/s.

Because its light is 776 million ly from home, you are seeing NGC 6902A as it looked roughly 776 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.
