Videos
MACS0647-JD is a galaxy with a spectroscopic redshift of z = 10.17, equivalent to a light travel distance of 13.34 billion light-years. It formed about 460 million years after the Big Bang.
MACS0647-JD is very young and only a tiny fraction of the size of the Milky Way.
In this James Webb Space Telescope image of galaxy cluster MACS0647, the massive gravity of the cluster acts as a cosmic lens to bend and magnify light.

…lensing cluster that helped discover this galaxy: MACSJ0647+7015 at z = 0.591. MACS0647-JD was announced in November 2012, but by the next month UDFj-39546284, which was previously thought to be z = 10.3, was said to be at z = 11.9, although more recent analyses have suggested the latter is likely to be at a…
