Anymore galaxies?

[AkshatSoni]

Hello Universe Lovers!

I was just curious to know that are all the galaxies discovered in the observable universe?

If no, then what if we see something that has not been discovered.

Thank You.

The answer is probably not - we keep going deeper into the universe's past. But you are unlikely to find a new one with any amateur gear. Most of the new discoveries are in the infra-red because of enormous red-shifts. 

But you could work on discovering a new supernova in a galaxy ...

I have personally seen in the order of 500 galaxies, but the total number is many orders of magnitude larger. Professionally, I work on the development of software to detect faint objects, including a class of ultra-diffuse dwarf galaxies. With each new generation of telescopes, more objects are being found. However the chances of finding a new galaxy with amateur equipment is not very large, especially visually. With very long exposures, some faint objects in nearby clusters of galaxies might be found, but the odds of beating the data from big telescopes are not that large. You have more chance discovering transient events like supernovae, and even then, automated survey telescopes probably will find these rare events before you do

Probably not....

but if you find a undiscovered galaxy, than you'll be congratulated as the discoverer.

No. The Hubble ultra deep field photo (which took about 5 months to take ), is one of the deepest images taken, and covers only one thirteen millionth of the sky. So only 12,999,999 more to go

oh, and we struggle to see through the dust of our own milky way, so we'll probably never see them all in that direction.
