Can anyone find us an online photo of a galaxy that is z = 1.4?
I'd like to be able to point in the direction and show a kid the galaxy (too far away to see without telescope, but still possible to imagine.)
A galaxy at redshift 1.4 is now, at this moment, receding at 1.0 c.
(this is according to the standard model with Hubble 71, dark energy 0.73, matter 0.27---the usual, as in Ned Wright's calculator)
A galaxy at redshift 1.65 was then, when it emitted the light we see from it, receding at 1.0 c.
I'd like to know of some nice-looking galaxies at those redshifts. It shouldn't be hard to find them because thousands of galaxies have been found at all different redshifts out as far as z = 7.
