Astronomers at the University of California Santa Cruz (UCSC), studying ultra-deep imaging data from the Hubble Space Telescope, have found what may be the most distant galaxy ever seen -- about 13.2 billion light-years away. The study pushed the limits of Hubble's capabilities, extending its reach back to about 480 million years after the Big Bang, when the universe was just 4 percent of its current age. The newly detected galaxy has a likely redshift value ("z") of 10.3.
