Named "Hubble Legacy Field", this composite image is created by stitching together more than 7,500 Hubble Space Telescope observations taken over 16 years.
The image mosaic presents a wide portrait of the distant universe and contains roughly 265,000 galaxies. They stretch back through 13.3 billion years of time to just 500 million years after the universe's birth in the big bang.

I wonder how many if any intelligent civilizations in this photo have taken a photo of us.

Here is the full resolution TIFF file. (1.2GB) Kinda crazy that anyone can just grab it off the Internet.
