Discovered: the galaxy that's so far away we're seeing it as it was 13.8 billion years ago
Astronomers have detected the furthest known galaxy in the Universe which is more than 13 billion light years away on the very edge of space.
Because of the time it takes for its light to reach Earth, the galaxy is seen today as it was just 700 million years after the Big Bang - the primordial event that created the Universe some 13.8 billion years ago.
