NGC 7559A

NGC 7559A is a lenticular galaxy in the constellation Pegasus about 214 million ly from Earth. It spans roughly 37,000 ly, about 37% of our Milky Way's width. The light reaching us tonight left it about 214 million years ago.

Because its light is 214 million ly from home, you are seeing NGC 7559A as it looked roughly 214 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.
