I play with
kites but
all my kite buddies think my
flying has too many axles in it.
"If it doesn't setup my next axle like thing,
it isn't in my book."

Late in December of 1995, the director of the Hubble
Space Telescope found himself with 10 days of
discretionary time on the telescope. Normally
this time would be allocated to other astronomers to
make up for telescope time they might have lost during
the year. With this windfall of telescope time, the
director chose a small but typical section of the sky
void of bright stars.
The image, called the Hubble Deep Field (HDF), image
covers a piece of the sky only about the width of a
dime located 75 feet away. Most of the galaxies
seen are so faint (nearly 30th magnitude or about
four-billion times fainter than can be seen by the
human eye) they have never before been seen by even the
largest telescopes. This is the deepest
astromomical picture ever taken, thus in one sense,
this the oldest photograph ever taken. Most of
these galaxies emitted the light captured in this
photograph more than 10 billion years ago.
