I dont think it’s saying Hubble has actually seen them which I’m fairly certain it hasn’t, but rather that’s when the universe has become see-through making it possible to see what’s out there.
Um, yeah, Hubble recorded light from GN-z11 and its spectrum was measured, giving an extremely reliable estimate of its distance. Obviously things had cleared up by then.

Right but what I’m saying is that Hubble may have been able to see it because the universe became clear but that doesn’t mean GN-z11 was one of the first stars. It is probably by that point one of the second generation (first gen burned huge, bright, and fast) Those very first ones are I’m sure all too far into the infrared to currently be viewed.
