I like the interpreter theory.

Its photoshop.
It exists because people lie.

buy a telescope poorfag, dont spend all your money on GAYming computers

We don't know, but it could be for the best. If the true purpose of the universe was discovered, the universe would reset.

read ethan ohs answer and prepared to be mind blown (especially the ending).

You can't see such an image with a telescope. Maybe you should actually try using a telescope.

Maybe you should try googling the word telescope and see what it means

>>9484178
ok

>>9484183
Right. So you understand that when i told to you to use a telescope, I pretty much solely meant "use a telescope" aye?

Keep your seizures under control for just a minute, will ya.

lolwut. You can't see other galaxies with conventional telescopes. Maybe andromeda.

You can even use wiki to debunk this meme.

"Hubble's low orbit means many targets are visible for somewhat less than half of an orbit's elapsed time, since they are blocked from view by the Earth for one-half of each orbit."

"The image was assembled from 342 separate exposures taken with the Space Telescope's Wide Field and Planetary Camera 2 over ten consecutive days between December 18 and December 28, 1995."

"It covers an area about 2.6 arcminutes on a side, about one 24-millionth of the whole sky, which is equivalent in angular size to a tennis ball at a distance of 100 metres."

Try using the low-light/exposure mode on your phone will trying to aim at a specific far away spot while running. IT SHOULD TOTALLY WORK AND GIVE YOU A HD PICTURE AS A RESULT.

Damn Nasa, always trying to make you feel that this world is bigger than you and me, so that we feel insignificant. Insignificant is dumb, it's easy to control... Makes me want to wear a tinfoil hat right now!

$400 million or $10 billion in today's money for a photoshop image.

>>9484203
But anon, we are insignificant, we should still go on with our lives regardless, only brainlets resort to retarded nihilism.

>what is this?
Thousands of galaxies.

>Why does it even exist?
Because all the matter in the universe expanded.
Or are you asking for a purpose? Why would it need one?

>>9484194
You can see Andromeda with the naked eye, actually.
You wouldn't pick out that it is a galaxy though. There's another one you can see with the naked eye that is fainter, but I can't remember it.

If I could run without any vertical motion I don't see why there would be any issue.

That said, I'm sure there was some reconstructive work done on it, probably the particularly bright/large objects were taken from a single exposure and bumped up in brightness to retain resolution while the dimmer/further way objects used multiple exposures to capture.
Point is that compositing images doesn't make them fake, or else all those panorama photos people take on their cellphones would also be fake.

How can you take it out of the context of consciousness? What we observe about the universe first requires that we exist, and it's probably really hard for intelligent life to evolve so it should be fairly unsurprising that we find ourselves in a vast universe with many trillions of stars and planets.

Even the creator might not know why he exists. Even if a god existed forever and always he's got to logically not have existed at some point to come to a state of existence?
