Thanks, hheb09'1, I'll have to email her about that, too. So, are you all saying NASA is wrong about the 15 billion? I also see that it was discussed on the BA's blog

That’s why I got a chill, why the hair on the nape of my neck stirred. Look at that picture again, and wonder that the light recorded in it had traveled for 13.5 billion years, 98.5% of the age of the Universe itself, across that vast and terrible gulf of space.

I did some searches, and see other places that say 15 billion. I'm confused now. Help, who's right?

Eroica, it's your turn....
