I always thought the Hubble Deep Field was the deepest image, but a friend showed me the new Webb telescope shot from last month and it has galaxies from 300 million years after the Big Bang.

Honestly I felt the same way about Hubble being the best for years. Seeing those Webb pictures completely changed my mind though. The idea we can look at light from just 300 million years after everything started is wild. It makes the old deep field look almost close by comparison. Really shows how fast the tech is moving.

Totally agreed with @violay27. Hubble was the gold standard for so long. Seeing those tiny red smudges from Webb, actual baby galaxies, blew my mind. The new data is on a whole different level.

Right? Hubble's basically a potato camera now. We went from "wow, space" to counting atoms on a different planet.
