Hubble's 13-Billion Year Look Into Space -In 3D (VIDEO)

In late 2003 the Hubble telescope assembled an image that represents the deepest look into space every created, capturing an estimated 10,000 galaxies, some as old as 13 billion years (just a few hundred million years after the Big Bang, going by most estimates), all compressed into a sliver of sky no bigger than what you'd see behind a grain of sand held at arm's length. Here's what it looks like in 3D.

I just love it ..... well i don't have any doubt about your articles... your articles are awesome... Honestly you are simply the best.Thanks for sharing this with us. Please come visit my site Kansas City Yellow Page Business Directory when you got time.


Fantastic images from the father of all telescopes......beautiful....great.

Regards to Hubble a key milestone for looking and searching in the deep space and past time.

Whoever put this video together did a very good job. An interesting topic that leaves me wanting more!

The item carries information but the credibility of the reporting about such observations dating back 13 billion years is doubtful. There are several possibilities in this regard, e.g. the velocity of light has not remained constant and infact some observations of distant galaxies using large aperture radiotelescopes in Australia indicate that the velocity of light was significantly higher than the standard constant value we accept today. The Big bang scenario and close to it was too violent for present Physics to understand. We need to speculate logical scientific possibilities that may have prevailed at that time, as we have no means to simulate such conditions, whatever high energy accelerator/ collider we have built or may plan to build in the near future. The entire energy of our Cosmos with matter was born at that instant of time and so close to birth Physics may well be very very different!

Even in 13 Billion light years of " nothing ", there is something.

Videos like these are really incredible, ALMOST as good as being out there amongst the galaxies.
