Matches in DBpedia 2014 for { ?s ?p Z8 GND 5296 z8_GND_5296 is a galaxy discovered in October 2013 which has the highest redshift that has been confirmed through the Lyman-alpha emission line of hydrogen, placing it among the oldest and most distant known galaxies at approximately 13.1 gigalight-years (4.0×109 pc) from Earth. It is "seen as it was at a time just 700 million years after the Big Bang [...] when the universe was only about 5 percent of its current age of 13.8 billion years". The galaxy is at a redshift of 7.51, and it is neighbour to what was announced then as second most distant galaxy with a redshift of 7.2. The galaxy in its observable timeframe was producing stars at a phenomenal rate, equivalent in mass to about 300 suns per year.The light reaching Earth from z8_GND_5296 shows its position over 13 billion years ago, having traveled a distance of over 13 billion light-years (13 gigalight-years). Due to the expansion of the universe, this position is now at about 30 gigalight-years (9.2 Gpc) (comoving distance) from Earth.. }
