Showing 10,000 galaxies, the overwhelming Hubble Ultra Deep Field is the most amazing, most humbling image in history, demonstrating how tiny and precious we are. This video explains how it was taken, and shows it in three dimensions.

    awe.. some..

    I remember getting a DVD with New Scientist a few years back celebrating the 25th anniversary of Hubble, was quite interesting… and purely awesome.

    With so much out there, its hard to believe that most people still think we’re alone in this universe…

    This video is truly an eye opening experience.
