" --http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmic_microwave_background_radiation#Fe... Hi jeff !!! The furthest objects were carried by expanding distance far below the speed of light. Objects with 14 billion year old light really took 22 billions years to be carried by expanding space to that greatest distance. Mitch Raemsch
