NASA’s hubble telescope has set a record by viewing farthest galaxy ever seen, an infant galaxy as it existed 13.4 billion years ago.
It is seeing into the pasts since the galaxy is so distant that it takes light 13.4 billion years to travel from the galaxy to earth. The international team astronomers operating the telescope saw it as it existed just 400 million years after the big bang, when the universe was only three per cent of its current age.
