The Hubble Space Telescope here is like a giant digital camera. use a digital camera as a demo NASA/crew of STS-125

use a digital camera as a demo a million second exposure (278 hours, nearly two weeks) on a portion of the sky just one tenth of a moon diameter across NASA/Hubble Heritage Team STScI/AURA NASA/ESA/Hubble Heritage (STScI/AURA)

The Hubble Ultra Deep Field images all the large and medium-sized galaxies that exist in this part of the universe. NASA/Hubble Heritage Team STScI/AURA NASA/ESA/Hubble Heritage (STScI/AURA)

Over 10,000 galaxies are visible in the HUDF. That works out to over 200 billion medium- and large-sized galaxies in the observable universe. Dwarf galaxies are a hundred times as numerous. NASA/Hubble Heritage Team STScI/AURA NASA/ESA/Hubble Heritage (STScI/AURA)

NASA/ESA/Hubble Heritage (STScI/AURA) This is 1 of 151 globular clusters in our Milky Way Galaxy.
