Meet our current record holder for farthest galaxy ever seen (so far!!)
MoM-z14 may look like an unimpressive little yellow smudge here, but it’s our first view of a galaxy that existed just 280 million years after the big bang and lies over 13.5 billion light years away from here.

13.5 Billion light years from here… Hm. That is how long the light took to each us, at no point was that the distance? It is now FAR further away.
There is no such thing as “now” on these scales
