This burst smashes the old distance record by 500 million light-years.

At that point we either had found the most distant burst in the universe, or there was dust in the way.

Swift detects and localizes and sends the information instantaneously to everybody. Every time a burst goes off, we check the resources we have available.

Dust scatters blue light out, but it's much more gradual.

We are finally starting to see the remnants of some of the oldest objects in the universe.

Think of how many mistakes you made at 22 years old. Like, I made a million.
