NGC 766

NGC 766 is an elliptical galaxy in the constellation Pisces about 378 million ly from Earth. It spans roughly 200,000 ly, about 2.0 times the width of our Milky Way. It is receding from us at about 8,104 km/s.

Because its light is 378 million ly from home, you are seeing NGC 766 as it looked roughly 378 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.
