Dark patch in the sky



In 1996, astronomers directed the Hubble Space Telescope into what was widely considered a dark patch in the sky, near the Big Dipper. The telescope, focused on a bit of space with the relative size of a grain of sand held at arm’s length, recorded 3,000 individual galaxies in a single frame — the nearest being about 13 billion light years away. Each containing its own billions of stars, and so on.
