About the colours

The image is a composite of separate exposures made by the WFC3 and ACS instruments on the Hubble Space Telescope. In total, 10 filters were used to sample a very wide wavelength range. The color results from assigning different hues (colors) to combinations of the monochromatic images. In this case, the assigned colors are: Red: WFC3/IR F125W + F160W Green: ACS/WFC F606W + F775W + F850LP + WFC3/IR F098M Blue: WFC3/UVIS F225W + F275W + F336W + ACS/WFC F435W

About the data

The image was created from Hubble WFC3 data from proposal 11359 , R. O'Connell (University of Virginia) and collaborators, combined with the HST/ACS GOODS v2.0 , which includes data from proposals 9425 and 9583 , P.I. M. Giavalisco; 9727 , P.I. Saul Perlmutter; 9728 , 10339 , and 10340 , P.I. A. Riess.
