John Mather Filled Quotations

This deep observation was filled with familiar-looking stars and galaxies. We removed everything we knew---all the stars and galaxies both near and far. We were left with a picture of part of the sky with no stars or galaxies, but it still had this infrared glow with giant blobs that we think could be the glow from the very first stars.
