That boundary should logically be the BB if we're on the right path of discovery, since our view of Galaxy GN-z11 is in that direction of time.



Right. Since that Galaxy is there we can assume more and more of those age galaxies and younger would come into view if enough time had elapsed for the light to travel. That would mean we are approaching the boundary of the universe I would think.

And those are Hubble images. When the James Webb Space Telescope launches in October of this year we'll be able to see much closer to the BB. Next will be the WFIRST telescope in the mid 2020s that will bring the BB even closer. It's a good time to be interested in cosmological science.
