| Instrument | HST>ACS/WFC and HST>WFPC2 |
| Exposure Dates | September 1999, November 2006, and January 2007 |
| Filters | ACS: F658N (H-alpha + [N II]) and F606W (wide V) WFPC2: F502N ([O III]), F487 (H-beta) |
| About The Image | |
| Color Info | The image is a composite of separate exposures made by the ACS and WFPC2 instruments on the Hubble Space Telescope. Three filters were used to sample narrow-wavelength ranges. One filter was used to sample broad wavelengths. The color results from assigning different hues (colors) to each monochromatic image. In this case, the assigned colors are: Red: F658N (H-alpha + [N II]) Green/cyan: F606W (wide V) Cyan: F502N ([O III]) Blue: F487 (H-beta) |
