Many, many galaxies, more than we thought in the past, populate the#universe.
To date, we can say that the number of galaxies is ten times greater than what has been known so far. Space telescopes say it first and foremost Hubble. Published onAstrophysical Journal, this discovery is due to the group of Christopher Conselice, from the British University of Nottingham.
The universe that until yesterday we were able to observe it contained approx 200 billion galaxies, but the new data there they say it is of a downward estimate of at least 10 times. Thanks to a simulationIn fact, researchers have been able to deduce the existence of galaxies that the current generation of telescopes cannot observe. There must therefore be an additional 90% of galaxies in the observable universe that are too faint and small or too distant for us, with our current instruments, to see.
The sky is still dark because the light of many stars these galaxies, the authors of the research explained, it turns out Invisible to the human eye and most modern telescopes due to many factors. We don't see them but they are there. And soon, with the telescopes of last generation, we will be able to observe them.
