The furthest planets from Earth are Exoplanets (or extrasolar planets), which are outside our solar system and are in orbit around other local stars. So far, over 500 have beeâ¦n detected. The furthest confirmed exoplanet so far is MOA-2008-BLG-310L, which is over 20,000 light years away.
The furthest known galaxy which lies more than 13 billion light years away from Earth has been discovered by astronomers using Nasa technology. This image from the Hubble Space Telescope CANDELS survey highlights the most distant galaxy in the universe with a definitively measured distance, dubbed z8_GND_5296. The galaxy's red color alerted astronomers that it was likely extremely far away, and thus seen at an early time after the Big Bang.
