Several hundred never before seen galaxies are visible in this
"deepest-ever" view of the universe, called the Hubble Deep Field
(HDF), made with NASA's Hubble Space Telescope. Besides the classical
spiral and elliptical shaped galaxies, there is a bewildering variety of
other galaxy shapes and colors that are important clues to
understanding the evolution of the universe. Some of the galaxies may
have formed less that one billion years after the Big Bang.
This short film summarizes the Deep Field's discoveries.
