The Hubble Ultra Deep Field

Part 1b: The Hubble Ultra Deep Field

To finish this part we will do the same thing for the Hubble Ultra Deep Field.

First, watch the video: https://www.spacetelescope.org/videos/heic0714g/

Second, read their description of the picture: http://www.spacetelescope.org/science/deep_fields/

Third, watch the video again and then answer the two questions:

  • A physical description of the picture (What is the picture of? What is happening in the picture? What redshift is the picture at? How far away are these galaxies?)
  • Your personal reaction to the galaxy. Keep in mind that each galaxy that you see contains on average 100,000,000,000 stars. Also show the short flythrough to another and record their personal reactions.
