The Images That The Hubble Telescope Captured In 2003 Are Unbelievable

On September 3rd, 2003…

The Hubble Space Telescope began pointing its camera at a small area in the night sky…

The area, about a tenth the size of a full moon, appeared to be complete blackness with no stars visible to the naked eye…

Hubble kept its camera pointed there for over four months, taking in all the light it could. This is what Hubble saw…

Each dot in this image is an entire galaxy

Each galaxy contains up to 1 trillion stars.

Each star may have a system of planets

There are over 10,000 galaxies in this photo alone…

These are the most distant objects ever photographed. More than 13 billion light years away.

The large galaxy pictures here contains 8 times as many stars as our Milky Way Galaxy. It is so large, it technically shouldn’t exist according to current physics theories.

Since light takes 13 billion years to reach Earth from these galaxies, the image we see actually depicts a time when the Universe was only 800 million years old.

The entire Star Trek series takes place in ONE galaxy. The USS Enterprise ( NCC 1701 D ) at maximum warp ( 9.6 ) would take almost 10 million years to reach this galaxy

All from what looked like nothing…

Mind=blown
