If the estimated size of the universe is correct and that planetary bodies circle most stars then it is approximately 13.5 billion light years away.

What is the furthest planet in your galaxy?

The furthest planet in our galaxy is likely to be a planet orbiting a star at the outer edges of the Milky Way. Currently, the most distant known planet from Earth is probably located thousands of light-years away. The exact distance and location of such a planet would depend on ongoing discoveries and advancements in astronomical research.

What is the distance from earth to the furthest planet in our galaxy?

Astronomers once believed that planets were probably rare and unusual, and that tere might not be very many planets. However, recent discoveries indicate that planets are far more common; in fact, almost every star that astronomers have closely observed is discovered to have some planets! So it is likely that the "furthest planet in our galaxy" is on the other side of the galaxy from the Earth. The Milky Way galaxy has a radius of about 40,000 light years, and our solar system is about 3/4 of the way out from the center. So the "furthest planet in our galaxy" is probably somewhere near 70,000 light years away.
