NGC 7022

NGC 7022 is a lenticular galaxy in the constellation Indus about 108 million ly from Earth. It spans roughly 48,000 ly, about 48% of our Milky Way's width. It is receding from us at about 2,400 km/s.

Because its light is 108 million ly from home, you are seeing NGC 7022 as it looked roughly 108 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.
