概要
This is your Astronomy Tonight podcast.
Tonight, we're celebrating February 5th—a date that marks one of the most captivating moments in modern astronomical history! On this very date in 1995, the Hubble Space Telescope captured what would become one of the most iconic and profound images in all of science: the **Hubble Deep Field**.
Picture this: Astronomers pointed Hubble at what appeared to be a completely empty, unremarkable patch of sky in the constellation Ursa Major—an area so small that if you held a grain of sand at arm's length, it would cover more of the sky than this region. It was roughly one-millionth of the entire celestial sphere. Most thought they'd see... well, basically nothing.
But what happened next absolutely shattered our understanding of the cosmos.
When the image was revealed just days later, it showed not emptiness, but **approximately 3,000 galaxies**—each one a massive island universe containing billions of stars! These weren't nearby galaxies either; many were so distant their light had been traveling for over 13 billion years to reach us. Astronomers realized that if this tiny patch contained thousands of galaxies, then the observable universe must contain roughly **100 billion to 200 billion galaxies**—a humbling revelation that made our Milky Way feel delightfully insignificant.
The Hubble Deep Field fundamentally changed how we see ourselves in the cosmos.
