This image from 2009 shows an updated version of the Hubble Ultra Deep Field. The new eXtreme Deep Field could be considered a more detailed view of a portion of this image.

Before NASA's Hubble Space Telescope captured its iconic Hubble Deep Field, some astronomers were hesitant to take the ambitious imagery. But the director of Hubble's science mission took the risk.

From an unprecedented view of our evolving universe, to giant star clusters and nebulae, check out these 7 amazing deep-field images captured by NASA's Hubble Space Telescope ...

To some, the image might look no different than other pictures of deep space, such as the famous Hubble Deep Field images that also show countless galaxies unfathomably far away.

On Monday, NASA, ESA, and CSA released this image of the SMACS 0723 deep field, an area previously imaged by Hubble, and one of several deep fields Webb will take over time.
