Hubble Telescope Takes Photos of the Universe's Oldest Galaxies
From the first billion years

The photos used a 50-hour exposure to gather enough light, revealing galaxies that may be more than 12 billion light years away.
Project leader Jennifer Lotz said: "It is the deepest view of the universe ever taken.
