    This isn't new, but it's neat to look at.

    This video gives you an idea of how small the area viewed is.

    NASA, Space Telescope Science Institute. This is the Hubble Telescope "Ultra Deep Field." Everything visible here that does not have a cross-like diffraction pattern (those are stars) is a galaxy containing tens to hundreds of billions of stars.

    I wish I wouldn't have deleted it, but I had a link to a photo that was 700mb of probably that picture if not one similar. I might even have the photo on my external HDD.

    You also have to think, it takes 1000 years for most of that light to get to us. Any signal we send out is going to take that long also. And SETI has only been broadcasting for like what 60yrs. So, another 940 to go.

    Watch Morgan Freeman's Through the Wormhole. Great stuff.

    Depends on what you're looking at. Most of the objects in that picture are more than 1000ly away. Just our Milky Way is ~100,000ly wide.

    God......?? Oh yea, well, there are many

    Mine is the creator of all that is, He is the father of lights, the great I am, Jehovah Elohim, He knew me and you ( whoever you are ) before you were even conceived and had a plan for your life.

    You ( whoever you are ) at some point will be presented with a decision whether you want to live with Him forever...or not ( yuk on not )

    I have decided YES

    As for all the other residents of " universe " My God loves them too,

    Give Him a shot ya'll

    I mean everything you see in these vids is a swatch of what HE has done...the really amazing point is that YES , HE does know you and me and care about us individually
