@Kevin Reese. The light has been travelling across universe to get to us. We are seeing those stars as they were in the past. The distance between us and those objects is increasing.

lots of targets, from images of Jupiter in our own solar system to the most distant objects in Universe. Plus things it will pick up along the way that no one was expecting.

@zetectic7968 Yes Hubble amazing whey they finally fixed it.

@zetectic7968 I thought they looked a bit over exposed when I first saw them. Since the raw data has been released some amazing details has been highlighted. I'm looking forward to seeing the very distant galaxies in more detail like earendal. The guys are still seeing what it can do as this is a game changer. Fingers crossed no more major micrometeoroid hits before they get more of these amazing images.

@masonthunkwell9786 Eh?

@kevinreese8224 Yes some of those stars in those very distant galaxies would have gone supernova. However even the very first stars that formed last millions of years so our ability to observe them is not dependent on how long they last, it is limited by distance. The distance between us and those very distant galaxies is constantly increasing so at some point we will be travelling too fast for the light to catch up to us. It will no longer reach us and will disappear from the view of our most powerful telescopes. Eventually ALL red shifted galaxies will disappear from view because of that reason.

@kevinreese8224 Just one final point. When you say 'forever' there are two sides to this. The Universe may be eternal ie infinite. From what I have read in terms of the current models? The Universe is most likely spatially but not temporally infinite.
