This HST Image is sensational

It represents an 11 Day (yes, close to 260 hours) exposure !!!

The HST was aimed through a less populated area of our Milky Way (only 3 stars of the Milky Way Halo are present in the image).

ALL VISIBLE OBJECTS (less three stars) are GALACTICAL OBJECTS; GALAXIES like ours!

They count close to 10.000 Galaxies!

The field of View is approx. 1 sq-degree!

The distance is close to 13 Billion Light Years.
Thus they reperesent the first Objects of our Universe, born immediately after the Big-Bang
(if there was any :-).

The nasty comment derives from the assumption, that stars require a couple of “years” and the formation of galaxis a couple of Billion-Years either.
Question: If they where there instantly after the BB, then either the theory is wrong or there was no BB
