About the colours
This image is a composite of separate exposures acquired by the WFC3/UVIS instrument on HST. A single filter (F606W) was used to sample a broad wavelength range. Color has been applied to represent brightness, mapping data values into a range of hues from black through red, orange and yellow, to white.
