Zooming in to the Hubble Ultra Deep Field
(Snapshots taken from symbol Hubble Ultra Deep Field Zoom-In video. Figure 43 is a view of galaxies whose light has been on its way to us at least as long as Earth has existed. In the center right of fig. 43 there is an elliptical galaxy in front of a spiral galaxy. Figure 44 looks back to the first three billion years, and fig. 45 looks back to the first billion years.
