Hubble discovers the farthest star in the galaxy
The star is located 14 billion light years from Earth
A team of researchers found Icarus the farthest star and that so far has been found in the galaxy located 14,000 million light years from Earth. According to scientific research, Icarus existed about 4.8 billion light years after the Big Bang.
Well this is a little predictable I mean that in recent years we have run into these "was discovered xxxx the largest to date." We have seen a growth of the discoveries due to the great advance that the telescopes have had and that touch of "luck" that can happen by chance as it has happened several times, which I mean in a few months or a little years as is logical this will be so ... Incredible I do not take away the value, but the advances continue and continue "soon" will begin the new generation of telescopes. so I'll be attentive to new discoveries.
The discovery of Icarus was made "through the analysis and comparison of the data previously captured by Huble, we have determined that this new light source is a star that is located in the same galaxy as the Refsdal supernova", explained the researcher The Higher Council for Scientific Research (CSIC) José Diego, who works at the Institute of Physics of Cantabria. The effect called gravitational lens allowed to make the discovery of the star. The team of the Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas (CSIC) used it to reject a theory about dark matter

It's interesting to think that it took 14,000 million light years for us to even begin seeing the light from the star. The star could have dies by now and we are just seeing the remaining light coming to Earth.
they are thinking the samething jeje
