(‘composite image’ showing the ‘visible’ and ‘near-infrared’ light spectrum collected from hubble’s ‘ACS’ and ‘WFC3’ instruments over a ‘9-year period’)
(astronomers using NASA’s ‘hubble space telescope’ have assembled a comprehensive picture of the ‘evolving universe’ – among the most colorful ‘deep space images’ ever captured by the 24-year-old ‘telescope’)
(researchers say the ‘image’, in a new study called the “ultraviolet coverage of the hubble ultra deep field”, provides the ‘missing link’ in ‘star formation’)
(the “hubble ultra deep field 2014” image is a ‘composite’ of separate ‘exposures’ taken in ‘2003’ to ‘2012’ with hubble’s “advanced camera for surveys” and “wide field camera 3”)
(astronomers previously studied the “hubble ultra deep field” (aka ‘HUDF’) in ‘visible’ and ‘near-infrared’ light in a series of images captured from ‘2003’ to ‘2009’)
(the ‘HUDF’ shows a small section of ‘space’ in the southern-hemisphere constellation ‘fornax’)
(now, using ‘ultraviolet light’, astronomers have combined the full range of ‘colors’ available to ‘hubble’, stretching all the way from ‘ultraviolet’ to ‘near-infrared’ light)
(the resulting image – made from ‘841 orbits’ of ‘telescope viewing time’ – contains approximately ‘10,000 galaxies’, extending back in time to within a few hundred million years of the ‘big bang’)
(prior to the “ultraviolet coverage of the hubble ultra deep field” study of the ‘universe’, astronomers were in a ‘curious position’)
(missions such as NASA’s “galaxy evolution explorer” (GALEX) observatory, which operated from ‘2003’ to ‘2013’, provided significant knowledge of ‘star formation’ in ‘nearby galaxies’)
(using hubble’s ‘near-infrared’ capability, researchers also studied ‘star birth’ in the most distant ‘galaxies’, which appear to us in their most primitive stages due to the significant amount of ‘time’ required for the ‘light’ of ‘distant stars’ to travel into a ‘visible range’)
(but for the period in between, when most of the ‘stars’ in the ‘universe’ were born — a distance extending from about 5 to 10 billion ‘light-years’ — they did not have enough ‘data’)
(the lack of information from ‘ultraviolet light’ made studying ‘galaxies’ in the ‘HUDF’ like trying to understand the history of families without knowing about the ‘grade-school children'”, said principal investigator ‘harry teplitz’ of ‘caltech’ in (‘pasadena’ / ‘california’))
(the addition of the ‘ultraviolet’ fills in this missing range)
(‘ultraviolet light’ comes from the ‘hottest’, ‘largest’, and ‘youngest’ stars)
(by observing at these ‘wavelengths’, researchers get a direct look at which ‘galaxies’ are forming ‘stars’ and where the ‘stars’ are forming within those ‘galaxies’)
(studying the ‘ultraviolet images’ of ‘galaxies’ in this ‘intermediate time period’ enables ‘astronomers’ to understand how ‘galaxies’ grew in size by forming ‘small collections’ of very hot ‘stars’)
(because earth’s atmosphere filters most ‘ultraviolet light’, this work can only be accomplished with a ‘space-based telescope’)
(“‘ultraviolet surveys’ like this one using the unique capability of ‘hubble’ are incredibly important in planning for NASA’s “James Webb Space Telescope”, said team member “doctor rogier windhorst” of ‘arizona state university’ in ‘tempe’)
(‘hubble’ provides an invaluable ‘ultraviolet light dataset’ that researchers will need to combine with ‘infrared data’ from ‘webb’)
(this is the first really deep ‘ultraviolet image’ to show the power of that ‘combination’)
(“the hubble space telescope” is a project of ‘international cooperation’ between “NASA” and the “european space agency”)
(NASA’s “goddard space flight center” in (‘greenbelt’ / ‘maryland’) manages the ‘telescope’)
(the “space telescope science institute” (aka ‘STScI’) in ‘baltimore’ conducts ‘hubble’ science operations)
.
(‘STScI’ is operated for ‘NASA’ by the “‘association’ of ‘universities’ for ‘research’ in ‘astronomy’ (incorporated)”, in ‘washington DC’)
