If the universe is near infinite how is it possible to line up a shot of something without another planet/star/galaxy eventually getting in the way?

They do, thats why it takes a lot of pictures from different angles. If you take 1000 photos and get 1 good one, that is still a win. Also it uses visible, UV and infrared light. Different wavelenghts interact differently with different types of matter. So lets say you have dust, visible light couldnt pass it but infrared could.
