Those rascally scientists have found a giant hole smack dab in our very own Universe. The hole, which is devoid of even dark matter, spans over a billion light-years across, baffling scientists. The reason this is so perplexing is due to the well-supported notion that the Universe is isotropic and homogeneous. Essentially, we have observed that the Universe is made up of pretty much the same stuff regardless of where you look in the sky. Given this, finding a region of pure space this large is really quite a puzzler. With that in mind, I present to you, the Hubble Ultra Deep Field. This little gem represents a slice of the sky about the tenth of the size of the moon as viewed from earth.
