With its iconic "Deep Field" photo, the Hubble Space Telescope captured an image that has captivated dreamers and scientists alike. By pointing its powerful lenses at a seemingly empty patch of sky in the constellation Fornax for an entire week, Hubble unveiled an astounding composite of nearly 10,000 galaxies billions of light years away – some only around 500 million years old - with shapes and sizes that reach back to early times in the history of the universe. This single image provided astronomers with invaluable insights into star formation and galaxy evolution while also sparking imaginations everywhere to explore beyond our planet. The "Deep Field" photo has become a symbol of our place in the universe and anyone who sees it is forever changed by its beauty and power.
