Handout released by ESA on December 8, 2009 shows the deepest image yet of the Universe in near-infrared light taken by the new Wide Field Camera 3 aboard the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope. The faintest and reddest objects in the image are likely the oldest galaxies ever identified, having formed between only 600ñ900 million years after the Big Bang.
