NGC 75
NGC 75 is a lenticular galaxy in the constellation Pisces about 269 million ly from Earth. It spans roughly 140,000 ly, about the width of our Milky Way. The light reaching us tonight left it about 269 million years ago.

Because its light is 269 million ly from home, you are seeing NGC 75 as it looked roughly 269 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.
