590 million light-years?
The light was halfway here before the earliest dinosaurs appeared on earth.

Yeah, only, and it’s 14th magnitude- visible to the largest of the large amateur telescopes (probably 25” diameter minimum) and observatory telescopes. It would be interesting to see if any astrophotographers could capture it and enhance it with their software and make the Einstein Ring visible.
