In 2014, the GVSU Art Gallery hosted an exhibition titled “The History of Space Photography” that featured over 50 noteworthy images from the last 50 years of space exploration. Images included some of the earliest black and white photographs of the moon to more recent image taken with the Mars Curiosity rover. These images were captured by astronauts, astronomers, and data visualization experts. In this photograph of the Hubble Ultra Deep Field, several objects are identified as the faintest, most compact galaxies ever observed in the distant universe. They are so far away that we see them as they looked less than one billion years after the Big Bang. Blazing with the brilliance of millions of stars, each of the newly discovered galaxies is a hundred to a thousand times smaller than our Milky Way Galaxy.
