Actually the typical distances between stars vary a lot. Inside a globular cluster, you can have a million stars or so, which are much closer together than in our region.If you ask "Why are they distant from one another in our region of the galaxy", I would say that that can POSSIBLY be answered by the anthropic principle: if stars are much closer together, the conditions MIGHT be catastrophic, and make it difficult for life to survive.

Is there a picture of a distant star taken by hubble?

Yes, the Hubble Space Telescope has taken many images of distant stars. One notable example is a picture of a star known as "Pistol Star" in the Milky Way galaxy, which is one of the most luminous stars in the known universe. These images provide valuable insights into the nature and behavior of stars located far beyond our solar system.


Reasons why astronomers have difficulty looking at distant stars except?

Light years of dust lanes obscure the view of distant stars in visible light. However, radio telescopes can penetrate the dust and can detect (in the x-ray and infrared spectra) the stars in the core of our galaxy.They don't understand how redshift affects stars.
