Why does the image show very few stars?
A: It is hard to find stars in the Milky Way Galaxy, so it would have been too difficult to select a region that had many. B: Stars are only visible in radio waves, and the Hubble Deep Field image was taken in the optical region of the spectrum. C: Stars are only visible in the optical region of the spectrum, and the Hubble Deep Field image was taken with a radio telescope. D: It was chosen so that bright stars in the Milky Way Galaxy do not interfere with our picture of the distant universe. E: The scientists were interested seeing the light of galaxies through a region of space filled with black holes.
