This video is very misleading. Those pictures aren't showing us things that are "47 billion light years" away. The universe is aprox. 13.7 billion years old, so the absolute furthest we could ever see is about 13.7 billion lightyears. And we would in fact be seeing the universe as it was 13.7 billion years ago, not as it is today. Because of expansion these galaxies are now MUCH further away than 13.7 billion lightyears, but in these pictures but we aren't seeing them as they are now.
@TRUTHvsDECEPTION Galileo, as brilliant as he was, was hardly the beginning of astronomy. He was persecuted for supporting and promoting Copernicus's ideas of a sun centered universe, which were published 70 years earlier.
Also they were all Christians so it wasn't about an old "Christian belief about astronomy" vs. some kind of new non-Christian scientific astronomy. It was about actual observations vs. religious dogma WITHIN Christianity. Galileo wasn't challenging Christianity, just dogma.
fuck i wish i lived for 20,000 years so i can see wtf is out there :( too bad you only live once but just maybe there is eternal life, which i mostly dough but yeh i can only hope EY :D

Christian belief about astronomy was thrown out of window by Galileo. Christianity was in total dark about astronomy before Galileo.
