    This NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope image offers us the chance to see a distant galaxy now some 19.5 billion light-years from Earth (but appearing as it did around 11 billion years ago, when the galaxy was 5.5 billion light-years away and began its trek to us through expanding space).

The lighted side appears to shrink, but the Moon’s orbit is simply carrying it out of view from our perspective.
