This image is the deepest image of the universe in the visible light spectrum. It was taken by the Hubble Telescope and these galaxies are the oldest that have ever been seen. It is estimated that the galaxies are over 13 billion years old. It took 10 years for the Hubble Telescope to get this image and is an invaluable resource in our understanding of galaxies. It amzes me at how many galaxies are there. There's got to be at least 300, and just think. What if one of those galaxies contains a planet like Earth.
