Nancy Grace Roman vs. Hubble Telescopes Deep Field Zoom Out

This zoom-out animation begins with a view of the Hubble Ultra Deep Field outlined in blue which represents the deepest portrait of the universe ever achieved by humankind at visible ultraviolet and near-infrared wavelengths. The view then expands to show a wider Hubble survey of that area of sky white outline which captured about 265000 galaxies in a large mosaic. Expanding further we see the Hubble data overlaid on a ground-based view using data from the Digitized Sky Survey. An orange outline shows the field of view of NASAs upcoming Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope. Romans 18 detectors will be able to observe an area of sky at least 100 times larger than the Hubble Ultra Deep Field at one time with the same crisp sharpness as Hubble. CREDITS: NASA ESA A.
