It really doesnt matter how "big" or sophisticated a telescope is. Theres limits to the observable universe. Can't see further then that cos the universe didnt exist back then. You got to remember, light travels at finite speed and will take millions and millions of years to reach us. Basically we're looking back in time. the more powerful a telescope, the more detailed view but we'll never see outside the observable universe from where we are atm
