In September 2012, the Hubble eXtreme Deep Field (HXDF) combined a decade of Hubble images -- along with a complete census of archival datasets -- to assemble mankind’s deepest-ever view of the ...

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.

The final image clocks in at a whopping 2.5 gigapixels. Hubble gazes at galaxies all the time—the famous Hubble Deep Field images alone show countless galaxies in faraway parts of the universe.

NASA's Hubble Reveals 'Glittering Cosmic Geode' in New Image Published May 20, 2024 at 10:14 AM EDT Updated May 20, 2024 at 10:20 AM EDT By Jess Thomson ...

And compared to the old Hubble snapshot, JWST was able to image its slice of the deep field lightning fast. Hubble needed 11 days to capture the area, while JWST needed less than a single day.

Caption This image of the Hubble Ultra Deep Field was taken by the Near-Infrared Camera on NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope. The Webb image observes the field at depths comparable to Hubble ...

If you’ve heard of gravitational lensing recently, it’s likely because the same phenomenon was also visible in the first deep field image shared from the James Webb Space Telescope.

In a famous article published in Science in 1990, John Bahcall of the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, N.J., and his colleagues argued that a deep-field image from Hubble would not ...

The Hubble XDF, or eXtreme Deep Field image, released in 2012. Image: NASA, ESA, G. Illingworth, D. Magee, and P. Oesch (University of California, Santa Cruz), R. Bouwens (Leiden University), and ...
