Video: Hubble telescope spotted the star furthest from Earth
Icarus stars are about nine billion light-years across Earth, discovered by the Hubble telescope with a gravitational lens effect.
The Icarus star or LSI is as big as the Sun at 9 billion light-years from Earth, discovered by the Hubble telescope thanks to the gravitational lens effect , in which the star's light is bent and magnified by gravity. the galaxy's passing.
The blue Icarus star.
The star originated from the age of the universe is only 30% of the current. Icarus is said to be a giant blue star, about the same size as the Sun but twice as hot.
The team determined it was not a supernova because it had not exploded. They also examined the hypothesis of dark matter and star clusters containing Icarus.
