The most distant galaxy thus far

In astronomy's common fashion of having the largest, brightest, fastest, hottest things...basically in existence, astronomers at the Carnegie Observatory have discovered the farthest thing ever.

This is an infrared section of the Hubble Deep Field. That blue splotch is 13.2 billion light years away, its light being emitted 480,000,000 years after the Big Bang.

480,000,000 years is 3% the age of the Universe, this is a celestial fossil.
