hydropowerman34 asked: Say I wanted to look at a star that was 200 million light years away with my naked eye. The light I’m seeing is from 200 million years ago. Now, if I look at that same star with the Hubble telescope, am I seeing the same light that I saw with my naked eye, or does the telescopic vision capture light from much earlier?
Lots of good information. Thanks.

Feafe asked: The Hubble Space Telescope’s new advanced camera has a field view that is roughly square about .06 degree on a side.
What us the angular area of the HST’s field of view in square degrees?
it is NOT a sphere it is a SQUARE…. I originally thought it was .06*.06 but I do not think that is the answer
