The spacewalk, which lasted only 1 hour and 32 minutes, was the […]
Astronomers have pushed NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope to its limits by finding what they believe is the most distant, ancient object ever seen in the universe. Its light traveled 13.2 billion years to reach Hubble, roughly 150 million years longer than the previous record holder. The age of the universe is 13.7 billion years. The […]
