WHL0137-LS, also known as Earendel, is a star located in the constellation of Cetus.Discovered in 2022 by the Hubble Space Telescope, it is the earliest and most distant known star, at a comoving distance of 28 billion light-years (8.6 billion parsecs).
Objects may have been discovered without distance determination, and were found subsequently to be the most distant known at that time. However, object must have been named or described. An object like OJ 287 is ignored even though it was detected as early as 1891 using photographic plates, but ignored until the advent of radiotelescopes.

Scientists were ‘surprised’ to find a star that is much farther than the previous record-holder, which was nine billion light years away. Star 13 billion light years from Earth is most distant ...
GN-z11 is a high-redshift galaxy found in the constellation Ursa Major.It is among the farthest known galaxies from Earth ever discovered. [5] [6] The 2015 discovery was published in a 2016 paper headed by Pascal Oesch and Gabriel Brammer (Cosmic Dawn Center).
ULAS J0015+01 is the designation given to a star discovered on July 10, 2014 as the farthest star in bound of the gravitational attraction of the Milky Way galaxy. It is estimated to lie at 900,000 light-years from the Earth, beyond the reaches of the Magellanic Clouds. [1] Another star, ULAS J0744+25, was a bit closer. [2]
