Speaking in an official statement following the publication of these images, NASA administrator Bill Nelson said. "We're looking back more than 13 billion years... and we're going further... this is just the first image and since we know the universe is 13.8 billion years old, we're going back almost to the beginning.
"It is going to be so precise you are going to see whether or not planets are habitable. And when you look at something as big as this we're going to be able to answer questions that we don't even know what the questions are yet."
