2021 August 02 - The Hubble Ultra Deep Field in Light and Sound
Channel: APOD Podcast
Date: 2021-08-02

In today's image, we see an image known as the Hubble Ultra Deep Field where the Hubble Space Telescope observed an otherwise empty part of space to look for very distant objects. The image has been sonified so that if you use the link below, as you move the mouse over the image a different tone will be played based on the estimate distance of each object. Nearer objects have higher tones and more distant objects have lower tones.
