11、) How old are the objects you can see in the sky? The brightest star in the night sky, Sirius, is believed to be about 200300 million years old. The sun and the moon are much older about 4.5 billion years old.New pictures taken by a telescope in space show ancient galaxies (星系) that blow those numbe
12、rs away. Some of these images show galaxies that are about 13 billion years old. The universe itself is only about 13.7 billion years old, so these galaxies formed when the universe was very young.“We are looking back 13 billion years and seeing galaxies just 600 to 700 million years after the Big B
13、ang，” says Richard Ellis who studied the pictures. The pictures came from the Hubble Space Telescope, which floats through space around the Earth, 353 miles up.Scientists found that the most distant reaches of space have fewer bright galaxies than closer regions. The decrease in the number of galaxi
14、es was not surprising, based on what astronomers have already learned about the universe. To look deep into space is the same as looking back in time, because light from faraway galaxies takes a long time to reach the Earth. When astronomers look at a picture of a distant star of galaxy, they are se

So when scientists look at these new pictures of distant galaxies, they see the star or galaxy as it looked millions or billions of years ago, at a time when the first galaxies were just forming.To take these pictures, the telescope used a new tool called the Wide Field Camera 3, or WFC3. Like an ordinary camera, this one takes pictures using visible light. But in addition, it also records pictures at wavelengths the eye can not see, including ultraviolet(紫外线的) light and infrared(红外线的) light.All of the
