I remember when that famous picture came out. I think it was at a meeting of the Astronomical Union. It's quite a simple concept. Space is so fast, the farther out you look with a telescopic device, the farther back in time you go. So, the pic that came back showed how the Universe looked 13 billion years ago, after it had started forming galaxies. That's confirmed by seeing some of them not fully formed yet.
Also, look how "close" to one another they are. The Universe hadn't expanded much yet.

Perrier water, to go with the scotch you should have in your wet bar. A good white wine. Brie. Celery sticks. Whole milk, for coffee in the morning. Apples. Walnuts. Two steaks, aged prime beef. Butter, real. Ice Cream in the freezer, (not vanilla.)

Another theory about the origin of the superstition traces the event to the arrest of the legendary Knights Templar.

The Knights Templar were a monastic military order founded in Jerusalem in 1118 C.E., whose mission was to protect Christian pilgrims during the Crusades. Over the next two centuries, the Knights Templar became extraordinarily powerful and wealthy. Threatened by that power and eager to acquire their wealth, King Philip secretly ordered the mass arrest of all the Knights Templar in France on Friday, October 13, 1307 - Friday the 13th.

Who really knows... Just be careful out there!!
