Hubble Deep Field

NGSS Phenomena:
In the image below, we see what the Hubble telescope saw looking into a very small part of the night sky. This image is a composition, or a group or pictures laid on top of each other, that were taken from different light ranges from ultraviolet to near-infrared light. Having the data from all these different types of light gives scientists a much more colorful and informative view of the universe than they’ve ever had before. Researchers estimate that this image alone contains more than 5,000 galaxies.
NGSS Phenomena: A deep space image of hundreds of galaxies.

1. Some of the objects in this image are brighter than others because the brighter objects are likely than the darker objects.

2. Judging by the shape of these lights we see, how large do you think they are compared to our Solar System.
