NGC 7323

NGC 7323 is a barred spiral galaxy in the constellation Pegasus about 261 million ly from Earth. It spans roughly 89,000 ly, about the width of our Milky Way. It is receding from us at about 5,522 km/s.

Because its light is 261 million ly from home, you are seeing NGC 7323 as it looked roughly 261 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.
