Hubble Telescope Finds Oldest Galaxy
With help of the Hubble Telescope, astronomers have caught a glimpse of a galaxy from 13.1 billion years ago!
Named UDFy-38135539, a small smudge on the Hubble Telescope photograph, it is believed to be the oldest and most distant object captured to date.
According to astronomers, this finding is very important because it coincides with their theory of the birth of stars and galaxies.
The image is believed to be from 780 million years after the big bang.
