About The Data
Data DescriptionThe image was created from Hubble WFC3 data from proposal , R. O'Connell (University of Virginia) and collaborators, combined with Hubble ACS GOODS v2.0 data, which includes data from proposal : M. Giavalisco (University of Massachusetts) et al., and proposal : A. Riess (JHU and STScI). The science team for this release is led by A. van der Wel (Max Planck Institute for Astronomy, Heidelberg, Germany), and the images were produced by A. Koekemoer (STScI).

About The Image
Color InfoThis image is a composite of many separate exposures made by the ACS and WFC3 instruments on the Hubble Space Telescope using different filters that isolate broad wavelengths. The color results from assigning different hues (colors) to each monochromatic image. In this case, the assigned colors are: Blue: F225W (UV) + F275W (UV) + F336W (U) + F435W (B) Green: F098M (blue grism) + F606W (V) + F775W (i) + F850LP (z) Red: F098M (blue grism) + F125W (J) + F160W (H)
