Astronomers say they have observed a galaxy a very distant 13.28 billion lightyears away, zooming in closer than ever to the "cosmic dawn" of the Universe's first stars.

Despite the fact that we experience time in one direction- we get older, we have records and remember the past, but no record of the future-no laws of physics insists that time must move forward. When the Big Bang created our universe, physicists believe it also created an inverse mirror universe where time moves in an opposite direction.

A musician combines the logarithmic maps of the universe from Princeton and images from NASA to create an image showing the observable universe in one disc.

Astronomers find a few stars swirling around the centre of the Milky Way that were formed not long after the universe began.

An astrophysicist says he may have found evidence of alternate or parallel universes by looking back in time to just after the Big Bang more than 13 billion years ago,
