About The Data
Data DescriptionThe Hubble images were created from data from proposal : K. Noll (STScI), C. Proffitt (STScI/CSC), D. Leckrone and M. Niedner (NASA/GSFC), and M. Livio and Z. Levay (STScI). Acknowledgments for Jet in Carina Observers: K. Noll (STScI), C. Proffitt (STScI/CSC), D. Leckrone and M. Niedner (NASA/GSFC), and M. Livio and Z. Levay (STScI) Data Analysis: H. Bushouse, J. Anderson, and M. Mutchler (STScI) Image Composition: Z. Levay and L. Frattare (STScI) Text: L. Frattare, D. Weaver and R. Villard (STScI) Illustrations: Z. Levay (STScI) Video: G. Bacon (STScI) Science Consultants: M. Livio and N. Walborn (STScI), and N. Smith (UC Berkeley)
InstrumentHST>WFC3/UVIS
Exposure DatesJuly 24-30, 2009, Exposure Time: 11.4 hours
FiltersF502N ([O III]), F656N (H-alpha), and F673N ([S II])
About The Image
Color InfoThe image is a composite of separate exposures made by the WFC3 instrument on the Hubble Space Telescope. Five filters were used to sample narrow wavelength ranges. The color results from assigning different hues (colors) to each monochromatic image. In this case, the assigned colors are: Red: F673N ([S II]) Green: F656N (H-alpha) Blue: F502N ([O III])
