Editing Hubble Space Telescope (section)

==== Extending visible wavelength images ====
A unique window on the Universe enabled by Hubble are the [[Hubble Deep Field]], [[Hubble Ultra-Deep Field]], and [[Hubble Extreme Deep Field]] images, which used Hubble's unmatched sensitivity at visible wavelengths to create images of small patches of sky that are the deepest ever obtained at optical wavelengths. The images reveal galaxies billions of light years away, thereby providing information about the early Universe, and have accordingly generated a wealth of scientific papers. The Wide Field Camera{{nbsp}}3 improved the view of these fields in the infrared and ultraviolet, supporting the discovery of some of the most distant objects yet discovered, such as [[MACS0647-JD]].<ref name="heic">{{cite web |date=November 15, 2012 |title=Hubble spots three magnified views of most distant known galaxy |url=http://www.spacetelescope.org/images/heic1217b/ |access-date=April 6, 2022 |work=ESA/Hubble |archive-date=March 1, 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130301081845/http://www.spacetelescope.org/images/heic1217b/ |url-status=live }}</ref>

On March 3, 2016, researchers using Hubble data announced the discovery of the farthest confirmed galaxy to date: [[GN-z11]], which Hubble observed as it existed roughly 400 million years after the Big Bang.<ref name="GN-z11">{{cite journal |title=A Remarkably Luminous Galaxy at ''z''=11.1 Measured with ''Hubble Space Telescope'' Grism Spectroscopy |journal=[[The Astrophysical Journal]] |first1=P.
