JWST now owns the top 8 spots for most distant objects

One year ago, in 2022, Hubble still held the cosmic distance record. <img alt="" src="https://miro.medium.com/v2/resize:fit:630/0*O6wTq6iHV_60aazi" style="height:490px; width:700px" /> A section of the GOODS-N field, which contains the galaxy GN-z11, the most distant galaxy ever observed. Originally, Hubble data indicated a redshift of 11.1, a distance of 32.1 billion light-years, and an inferred age of the Universe of 407 million light-years at the time this light was emitted. With better JWST data, we know this galaxy is a little closer: at a redshift of 10.60 corresponding to an age of the Universe of 433 million years. (<a href="https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Distant_galaxy_GN-z11_in_GOODS-N_image_by_HST.jpg" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">Credit</a>: NASA, ESA, G.
