Over the past two decades, the Hubble telescope has stared at a dim corner of the universe to create the Hubble Ultra Deep Field image, where astronomers have found about 10,000 galaxies hiding in ...

It’s a composite image of an area of space known as the Hubble Ultra-Deep Field, and it took hundreds of hours to produce using the telescope’s Wide Field Camera 3.

Because the Hubble Ultra Deep Field is tiny — one one-hundred-fiftieth the apparent area of the full moon on the sky — and because the Wide Field Camera 3 has only just begun taking pictures ...

Hubble Space Telescope study suggests the universe was teeming with supermassive black holes. But how could that be?
