Question

multiple - choice question what is the main reason that the hubble telescope cant see the galaxies that are furthest away? the hubble telescope only detects infrared light which is invisible light. the light from those galaxies havent reached earth yet. those galaxies are moving away from us so quickly that the visible light they gave off billions of years ago have been red - shifted into the longer infrared wavelengths which hubble cant detect. the hubble only collects visible light waves and those early galaxies only radiate out microwaves.

Explanation:

The Hubble telescope can detect visible, ultraviolet, and some infrared light. The most distant galaxies are moving away from us at high speeds, causing the light they emitted billions of years ago to be redshifted into longer - wavelength infrared that Hubble has limited ability to detect compared to its visible - light capabilities. The light from some of these galaxies may not have reached Earth yet, but the main issue for not seeing them is the redshift problem. Hubble does not only detect infrared light and early galaxies do not only radiate microwaves.

Answer:

Those galaxies are moving away from us so quickly that the visible light they gave off billions of years ago have been red - shifted into the longer infrared wavelengths which Hubble can't detect.
