Hubble Telescope Photographs Farthest Supernova Yet

Astronomers at NASA have spotted the most distant supernova yet; in fact, the event took place so far away that as scientists watched it, they were watching an event that took place 10 billion years ago. Nicknamed SN Wilson, the phenomenon was specifically classified Type 1a supernova and may offer scientists a sense of how the universe has expanded ever since the Big Bang.
