if you could send me a link it'd be much appreciated or tell me what it is so I could do the research. I'm not finding the answers alone too well. Thanks!

Hubble helps find candidate for most distant object in the Universe yet observed

By combining the power of the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope, NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope and one of nature's zoom lenses, astronomers have found what is probably the most distant galaxy yet seen in the Universe. The object offers a peek back into a time when the Universe was only 3 percent of its present age of 13.7 billion years.
We see the newly discovered galaxy, named MACS0647-JD, as it was 420 million years after the Big Bang. Its light has travelled for 13.3 billion years to reach Earth, which corresponds to a redshift of approximately 11 [1].

Guys, whoever keeps saying this object is 13.3 lightyears away has missed it by a factor of a billion. It is 13.3 billion lightyears away.
