Subaru Discovers the Most Distant Galaxy to Date

Astronomers using the Subaru telescope in Hawaii have looked further back in time than any other astronomers, to find the most distant known galaxy in the universe. Their most recent discovery is of a galaxy called I0K-1 that lies so far away that astronomers are seeing it as it appeared 12.88 billion years ago.
