    If you watched the video, it explains that it was estimated at that number by the number of light years it takes for the light of the galaxies to reach earth (or in this case, the Hubble telescope). Light is how time can be measured through space. In other words, what we are looking at in the video, is what those galaxies looked like 13.7 billion years ago. So, if that's the case, it's actually older because there is "X" amount of time it took for those galaxies to develop in the first place.

    Maybe the edge of the universe is merely a giant mirror and we're looking back on ourselves?

    Perhaps we're only a cancerous cell inside some giants tumor?
