The Hubble Space Telescope has imaged the oldest, and therefore most distant, supernova yet found. The big explosion occurred more than 10 billion years ago.
Astronomers say it was a Type 1a supernova, and one of several things they want to learn is whether that type blast was of the same order of magnitude then as they are now.
