Abstract

The FORS instruments for the VLT telescopes have been built by a joint consortium of the state observatory Heidelberg (P.I. I. Appenzeller) and the University observatories of Munich and Gottingen. A significant fraction of the joint consortiums guaranteed observing time was used for the FORS Deep Field (FDF) project. The main scientific objective of the FDF is to explore the physical properties of (proto)galaxies and their evolution as a function of cosmic age.
