This illustration depicts cosmic history, from the Big Bang approximately 13.7 billion years ago (starting from the left) until the local universe today (far right). A detailed description of the illustration follows after the break.

The UDF12 project is committed to providing timely, quality data products to enable the entire astronomical community to conduct science programs in the Hubble Ultra Deep Field. We would like to announce the final official data release of processed, full-depth, science-ready images from the UDF12 project! All UDF12 data is now available in the form of science-ready images for anyone to use.
Using NASA's Hubble Space Telescope, astronomers have uncovered a previously unseen population of seven primitive galaxies that formed more than 13 billion years ago, when the universe was less than 3 percent of its present age. The deepest images to date from Hubble yield the first statistically robust sample of galaxies that tells how abundant they were close to the era when galaxies first formed.
