NGC 7232B

NGC 7232B is a barred spiral galaxy in the constellation Grus about 101 million ly from Earth. It spans roughly 49,000 ly, about 49% of our Milky Way's width. It is receding from us at about 2,042 km/s.

Because its light is 101 million ly from home, you are seeing NGC 7232B as it looked roughly 101 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.
