What Wikipedia says

NGC 5084 is a Seyfert 2 lenticular galaxy in the constellation of Virgo. It is located at a distance of about 25.1 megaparsecs (81.9 million light-years) from Earth, which, given its apparent dimensions using the 90% total light definition, means that NGC 5084 is 236 kiloparsecs (770,000 light-years) across.
