NGC 7098

NGC 7098 is a spiral galaxy in the constellation Octans about 111 million ly from Earth. It spans roughly 57,000 ly, about 57% of our Milky Way's width. It is receding from us at about 2,399 km/s.

Because its light is 111 million ly from home, you are seeing NGC 7098 as it looked roughly 111 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.
