  The most distant galaxies known are at z~10-11, observed 400-500 Myr after
the Big Bang. The few z~10-11 candidates discovered to date have been
exceptionally small- barely resolved, if at all, by the Hubble Space Telescope.
Here we present the discovery of SPT0615-JD, a fortuitous z~10
(z_phot=9.9+/-0.6) galaxy candidate stretched into an arc over ~2.5" by the
effects of strong gravitational lensing. Discovered in the Reionization Lensing
Cluster Survey (RELICS) Hubble Treasury program and companion S-RELICS Spitzer
program, this candidate has a lensed H-band magnitude of 25.7+/-0.1 AB mag.
With a magnification of \mu~4-7 estimated from our lens models, the de-lensed
intrinsic magnitude is 27.6+/-0.3 AB mag, and the half-light radius is r_e<0.8
kpc, both consistent with other z>9 candidates. The inferred stellar mass (log
[M* /M_Sun]=9.7^{+0.7}_{-0.5}) and star formation rate (\log [SFR/M_Sun
yr^{-1}]=1.3^{+0.2}_{-0.3}) indicate that this candidate is a typical
star-forming galaxy on the z>6 SFR-M* relation. We note that three independent
lens models predict two counterimages, at least one of which should be of a
similar magnitude to the arc, but these counterimages are not yet detected.
Counterimages would not be expected if the arc were at lower redshift. However,
the only spectral energy distributions capable of fitting the Hubble and
Spitzer photometry well at lower redshifts require unphysical combinations of
z~2 galaxy properties. The unprecedented lensed size of this z~10 candidate
offers the potential for the James Webb Space Telescope to study the geometric
and kinematic properties of a galaxy observed 500 Myr after the Big Bang.
