The Deep Extragalactic Evolutionary Probe (DEEP) is a multi-year program which uses the twin 10-m W.M. Keck Telescopes and the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) to conduct a truly large-scale survey of distant, faint, field galaxies. The broad scientific goals include: The formation and evolution of galaxies, the origin of large-scale structure, the nature of the dark matter, and the geometry of the Universe. This project is led by the Lick Observatory at UC Santa Cruz in collaboration with UC Berkeley, UH Manoa, Johns Hopkins University, University of Chicago and California Institute of Technology.
