In March 2022, Hubble space telescope discovered the farthest star from Earth ever observed… This star is called Earendel, and it is about 28 billion light-years away from us.
This means that the light from this very distant star took about 28 billion light-years to reach us.
Scientists say that this star does not exist anymore. Earedel died long time ago.
Therefore, the light of Earendel that we see right now does not represent true or current location of this star.
What We can see right now is the location of this star long time ago.
Scientists believe that Earendel was formed only about 900 million years after Big Bang which happened around 13.8 billion years ago.
