Faint Galaxy From Early Universe Is Spotted

NASA's Hubble and Spitzer telescopes have spotted the faintest object ever seen in the early universe. Galaxies such as this one have so far evaded detection, and could offer new glimpses into the evolution of the first galaxies and the make-up of the early universe. Meanwhile, the Spitzer telescope was launched in 2003, and while most of its instruments no longer work its two shortest-wavelength modules still operate.
