From the article: "Hubble and Gaia performed their measurements by examining Cepheid variables, a type of star that brightens and dims in a predictable pattern. The pattern allows scientists to learn how far away these stars are from us. The data is then used to measure the universe's expansion rate, which is also called the Hubble constant. That constant is also used to estimate the age of the universe, which makes it a fundamental equation for astronomers."

I suspect that is a bit misleading. I don't think they are measuring Cepheid variables at 14,000,000,000 light years.

Well, I guess they don't need to. If they can measure them at 10,000,000 light years and see the redshift variation nearby and then extrapolate.

It is a lot like we are not at the center of the Big Bang which I don't believe in.

Yes, they use different measuring techniques depending on how remote the target objects are. Cepheid variables are only good to a particular distance.
