A new record! Hubble Space Telescope spots the farthest star ever seen - by b0yle
for a single star, which registered a redshift of 1.5 and is thought to have existed when the universe was 4 billion years old.
A close look at the arc turned up several bright spots, but the characteristics of the light coming from Earendel pointed to a high redshift, which translates into extreme distance. The higher the redshift, the faster the source of the light is receding from us in an ever-more-quickly expanding universe.
One fuzzy spot in the Sunrise Arc stuck out. The nickname that Welch and his colleagues gave to that spot, Earendel, comes from the Old English word for “morning star.”
