200 000 galaxies in this 6 TB IR photo

Quote:

ESO's VISTA telescope has created the widest deep view of the sky ever made using infrared light. This new picture of an unremarkable patch of sky comes from the UltraVISTA survey and reveals more than 200 000 galaxies. It forms just one part of a huge collection of fully processed images from all the VISTA surveys that is now being made available by ESO to astronomers worldwide. UltraVISTA is a treasure trove that is being used to study distant galaxies in the early Universe as well as for many other science projects.

Quote:

ESO’s VISTA telescope has been trained on the same patch of sky repeatedly to slowly accumulate the very dim light of the most distant galaxies. In total more than six thousand separate exposures with a total effective exposure time of 55 hours, taken through five different coloured filters, have been combined to create this picture. This image from the UltraVISTA survey is the deepest infrared view of the sky of its size ever taken.

The man Jeremiah lived around 600 BC, when man's knowledge of his environment and of the 'heavens' was meagre.

Yet in the book of Jeremiah, God stated that if the extent of the heavens could [ever] be found out, and measured by men, God would cast off his people.

Jeremiah 31:37
Thus saith the LORD; If heaven above can be measured, and the foundations of the earth searched out beneath, I will also cast off all the seed of Israel for all that they have done, saith the LORD.

Have scientists today, in our 'modern' age, determined the boundary or extent of our universe ?

Job 26:7
He stretcheth out the north over the empty place, and hangeth the earth upon nothing.

Wisdom resteth in the heart of him that hath understanding: but that which is in the midst of fools is made known.

A fool hath no delight in understanding, but that his heart may discover itself.
