In the Astrophysical Journal appeared an article of a group of scientists CLASH (Cluster Lensing And Supernova Survey with Hubble) from the Space Telescope Science Institute of Hubble, the United States, led by Dan Coe and Marc Postman, that using the gravitational lensing, was broken a record to find the most distant galaxies- has been found the most distant galaxy from Earth- MACS0647-JD galaxy, which existed when the Universe was only 420 million years old, the light from MACS0647-JD Galaxy went to Earth a 13.3 billion light years. As reported by scientists from the group CLASH (Cluster Lensing And Supernova Survey with Hubble), MACS0647-JD Galaxy is so small, that the astronomers were able to see only the first stage of its formation, the diameter of less than 600 light years. MACS0647-JD Galaxy observed using of 17 filters, covering the entire spectrum of visible range of the electromagnetic radiation. Scientists from the Space Telescope Science Institute of Hubble, intends to seek on a space telescopes "Hubble" and "Spitzer" an other dwarf galaxies of early age of the Universe, because their observation allows us to understand the process of emergence and further development of the Universe, THE VIDEO:
