The scientists with the National Astronomical Observatory of Japan used the Subaru and Keck telescopes on the summit of Mauna Kea &#8211; a volcano on the island of Hawaii.<\/p>\n<p>Sensation discovery of these ancient galaxies in fact means that Japanese astronomers are viewing stars from the past &#8211; as the source of the light is over 6 trillion km away and takes light years for the light signals to reach the earth.

Using top-notch infrared and optical telescopes, the Japanese astronomers peer right through the early days of the Universe.<\/p>\n<!-- Error, Advert is not available at this time due to schedule\/geolocation restrictions! -->\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Japanese astronomers have discovered the oldest galaxy in the universe.
