I think a better way to read this headline is 'Astronomers exceedingly pleased with performance of instrument' - it's finding the types of things they want to look at, where they want to look. If it was about galaxy count - the Hubble Deep Fields found thousands of galaxies per shot, starting almost 30 years ago.
