The group of international researchers Space convinced detected in the spaces of our universe the dimmest and most “ancient” galaxy.
In addition to the use of the most powerful telescope in the world, the team relied on gravitational lensing to see the incredibly faint object, born just after the Big Bang.
also reported that the new galaxy has been found for MACS2129.4-0741 cluster of galaxies. These researchers placed in the trade journal Astrophysical Journal Letters, devoted to problems of research of deep space. Thus was “framed” one galaxy, images of which were compared with data from different sources.
Enhanced image of the galaxy (with the help of the gravitational lens) was also previously obtained separately by the Hubble Space Telescope and 2- x observatories Keck. The team has gathered and united all spectra of 3 images to confirm that they are watching the same galaxy.
Its magnitude is only 0.001 per cent of the Milky Way.
The team was able to register galaxy in the same condition in which it remained 13 billion years ago – in the era of space “infancy” of the universe. “It makes it possible to identify such a distant space object as an everyday sight in the galaxy of the universe” – said Marc Kassis, Keck Observatory worker who helps the team to carry out a study at night. “The only method in which can be seen this galaxy is the gravitational lensing».
