Hubble Deep Field was created in 1995.
Hubble Deep Field South was created in 1998.
The Hubble Deep Field image shows a small and seemingly empty region of space, but after a long exposure, it revealed thousands of galaxies of various shapes, sizes, and distances from Earth. This image helped scientists better understand the vastness and diversity of the universe and provided valuable insights into the early stages of galaxy formation.
The Hubble telescope has made numerous groundbreaking discoveries, including determining the rate of expansion of the universe, discovering new exoplanets, capturing images of distant galaxies, and providing evidence for the existence of dark matter.
The Hubble Deep Field is part of "The Great Observatories Origins Deep Survey". Basically it spent days exposing a close up image of the space between a few stars that we can see from earth. It turns out that when you zoom in on that "empty space" between the stars in our earth's sky - there are actually thousands of galaxies.The light is too far to really be visible without this special equipment. So what? Well, when you find a clear area and you think you can "see all the stars" - you're barely getting a taste of what's out there. Your eyes are only showing you a couple of the nearest stars.

There are at least 3000 galaxies in the Hubble Deep Field North (with billions of stars, planets, and moons in each one; as well as asteroids and nebulae). Their light has taken 13 billion years to reach Earth.
Hubble Deep Field South was created in 1998.
Hubble Ultra-Deep Field was created in 2004.
The Hubble Ultra Deep Field is a million second exposure into an area of the universe revealing numerous galaxies as far away as 13.7 billion light-years. By our reckoning, it is within a few hundred million years of the origins of the universe. But since the light took that long to get here, we have very little idea where the galaxies actually are right now in time.

Yes, and better than ever. Google "Hubble Ultra Deep Field" for some of the most amazing pictures you will ever see. Thousands upon thousands of galaxies.
It would take at least 1,000,000 years for the Hubble Space Telescope to observe over the entire sky of 100 billion galaxies in the universe.
The point of the Hubble Deep Field observations is that scientists pointed the Hubble Space Telescope toward a dark patch of the sky where there were no known stars or galaxies. Everything observed in those photos had been entirely unknown before the images were obtained. So, nothing there has a "name"; by now, it probably has an index number in some database. But not a "name".
