Q: What is the maximum redshift in this set of objects? z = 9 (roughly) Q: What is the light-travel time for a galaxy at that redshift? 13.169 Gyr Q: If the universe is 13.8 billion years old, what is the maximum possible age for a galaxy at that redshift? age = 13.8 Gyr - 13.169 Gyr = 0.63 Gyr = 630 million years
