Franja de groth extendida (Hubble)

Franja de groth extendida (Hubble)

Esta imagen del telescopio espacial Hubble muestra una parte del cielo conocida como la tira de grótica extendida (EGS). Los investigadores de la encuesta de CEERS utilizarán el telescopio espacial James Webb para observar la tira de grótica extendida en la luz infrarroja. Sus observaciones emplean tres de los instrumentos del telescopio y proporcionarán imágenes y espectros de los objetos en el campo, que incluyen al menos 50,000 galaxias, ayudando a expandir lo que sabemos sobre las galaxias en el universo muy temprano.

About The Data
Data Description The Hubble image was created from HST data from proposal : M. Davis (University of California, Berkeley), M. Ashby (Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics), T. Small (California Institute of Technology), P. Guhathakurta (University of California, Santa Cruz), L. Simard (Dominion Astrophysical Observatory), K. Noeske (University of California, Santa Cruz), S. Kwok, J. Mader, and P. Amico (California Association for Research in Astronomy (CARA)), A. Koekemoer and R. Somerville (STScI), S. Faber (University of California, Santa Cruz), J. Newman (Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory), D. Koo (University of California, Santa Cruz), S. White, G. Kauffmann, and V. Springel (Max Planck Institute for Astrophysics, Garching), M. Cooper (University of California, Berkeley), A. Metevier and B. Weiner (University of California, Santa Cruz), and K. Bundy (California Institute of Technology).
Instrument HST>ACS/WFC
Exposure Dates June 2004 to March 2005
Filters F606W (V) and F814W (I)
About The Image
Color Info This image is a composite of many separate exposures made by the ACS instrument on the Hubble Space Telescope using two different filters to sample broad wavelength ranges. The color results from assigning different hues (colors) to each monochromatic image. In this case, the assigned colors are: Blue: F606W (V) Green: F606W (V) + F814W (I) Red: F814W (I)
About The Object
Object Name A name or catalog number that astronomers use to identify an astronomical object.
Object Description The type of astronomical object.
R.A. Position Right ascension – analogous to longitude – is one component of an object's position.
Dec. Position Declination – analogous to latitude – is one component of an object's position.
Constellation One of 88 recognized regions of the celestial sphere in which the object appears.
Distance The physical distance from Earth to the astronomical object. Distances within our solar system are usually measured in Astronomical Units (AU). Distances between stars are usually measured in light-years. Interstellar distances can also be measured in parsecs.
Dimensions The physical size of the object or the apparent angle it subtends on the sky.
About The Data
