IRAC imaging of a 4'7x4'7 area in the Lockman Hole detected over 400 galaxiesin the IRAC 3.6 micron and 4.5 micron bands, 120 in the 5.8 micron, and 80 inthe 8 micron bandin 30 minutes of observing time. Color-color diagrams suggestthat about half of these galaxies are at redshifts 0.61.3). We also detect IRAC counterparts for 6 ofthe 7 SCUBA sources and all 9 XMM sources in this area. The detection of thecounterparts of the SCUBA sources and galaxies at z>1.3 demonstrates theability of IRAC to probe the universe at very high redshifts.Comment: 11 pages, 2 figures. accepted by ApJS, Spizter Special Issu
