The most distant objects found so far are galaxies. Often, these distant galaxies are found because they are forming hot stars at a rapid rate, causing them to be very bright. Or, they may contain active galactic nuclei (AGN) or quasi-stellar objects (QSOs), which are extremely bright gravitational engines powered by supermassive black holes.
