Default HUBBLE'S DEEPEST VIEW EVER OF THE UNIVERSE UNVEILS EARLIEST GALAXIES(STScI-PR04-07)

what hits me are the 'pink' galaxies...

Hi,

Re the Ultra Deep Field

Hope I'm in an appropriate group, sorry if not.

I'm looking at the very large jpeg (Using Fireworks).

I notice that there is a lot of blue pixels giving rise to a haze
effect, throughout the image.

My immediate reaction is that these are just artifacts caused by stray
photons?, but I guess I have to ask the question, could they actually
be real objects? If they are stray photons, how come they hit the
mirror?

Regards

Gordon Moore

Default Pink Galaxies - was HUBBLE'S DEEPEST VIEW EVER

At that distance and red shift, are we seeing what left as ultraviolet light
or is the shift much less than that so most of this was visible light to
begin with?

Default Pink Galaxies - was HUBBLE'S DEEPEST VIEW EVER

at this distance Im not sure what we are seeing, to be frank. You may well be
correct - light left some of these object as ultraviolet ( hi energy) and comes
to us
back in time as pink. I am sure the red shift could be that extreme given the
distance.
Or, we are looking at a different kind of matter!

I am struck by the strange chaotic appearence of these *(pink) galaxies, if they
even
are true galaxies. It's pretty obvious a number of these structures are in a
chaotic early state. (The pink glow reminds me of hydrogen bomb & nuclear
tests!) We are looking
at matter shortly after it was created - that's my thought.

Now as soon as I say this some smartass will come along and say "shortly after"?

A long time after creation. I am speaking only in relative terms, not
nano-seconds
after socalled creation.

But I am struck that we are seeing matter on a massive scale, of a kind and in
massive proportions we have never seen before. A bit deeper and I believe this
will become very clear.

Its almost as if we are seeing the first real large scale structures after some
kind of
compression event occurred and created matter and our universe.

And they want to de-commission Hubble!? I think we have these photos as the
beginning of a real campaign to save Hubble by showing its essential necessity.
