Very distant galaxy cluster

JKCS 041 is a cluster of galaxies with the distinction, as of 2009, of being the farthest galaxy cluster observed from Earth.^[1] It is estimated to be 10.2 billion light-years away,^[2] seen at redshift 1.9.^[3] The cluster is located in the constellation Cetus at a photometrically determined redshift of z=1.9 at right ascension 2^h 26^m 44^s declination −04° 41′ 37″ (J2000.0).^[4] There are at least 19 members in the cluster.^[2]
