About The Image
Color InfoThis image is a composite of separate exposures acquired by the ACS/SBC, ACS/WFC, WFC3/UVIS and WFC3/IR instruments. Several filters were used to sample various wavelengths. The color results from assigning different hues (colors) to each monochromatic (grayscale) image from the 13 different filters used by the four instruments grouped as follows: Blue: ACS/SBC F150LP, WFC3/UVIS F225W (U) + F275W (U) + F336W (U), ACS/WFC F435W (B) + F606W (V) + Green: ACS/WFCF775W (I) + F814W (I) + F850LP (z), WFC3/IR F105W (Y) Red: WFC3/IR F125W (J) + F140W (JH) + F160W (H)
