Scientific paper

We propose a Treasury program of ACS imaging as part of the Great Observatories Origins Deep Survey {GOODS}, covering 320{square}', or 32* the area of the two original WFPC2 HDFs, to within 0.5-0.8 mag of their depth in four ACS bands, BViz. The two GOODS fields, the Hubble Deep Field North and Chandra Deep Field South, are the premier deep survey areas from X- ray to radio wavelengths. ACS data will provide unique angular resolution, sensitivity, and wavelength coverage to close the gap between the deepest Chandra and SIRTF observations. Supported by extensive imaging and spectroscopy from the VLT, Keck, Subaru, NOAO, Gemini, VLA, JCMT, and other facilities, the combined GOODS data set will make it possible to map the evolution of the Hubble sequence with redshift, reconstruct the history of galaxy mass assembly, star formation and nuclear activity from the epoch of reionization to the present, trace the growth of density perturbations via cosmic shear, and, with properly phased z-band observations, detect 12 Type Ia supernovae at 1.2
