About The Object
Object Name Question Mark Galaxy in MACS J0417.5-1154
Object Description Gravitationally lensed galaxy in galaxy cluster
R.A. Position 04:17:34.6
Dec. Position -11:54:32
Constellation Eridanus
Distance 4.65 billion light-years (z=0.441)
About The Data
Data Description The Hubble image was created with data from proposals (A. Linden), (D. Coe), and (M. Bradac). The Webb image was created with data from proposal: (C. Willott); Image Processing: Joseph DePasquale (STScI)
Instrument Hubble: ACS; Webb: NIRCam
Filters Hubble: F606W, F435W, F814W; Webb: F090W, F150W, F444W
About The Image
Color Info The Hubble image is a composite of separate exposures acquired by the ACS instrument on the Hubble Space Telescope. Several filters were used to sample various wavelength ranges. The color results from assigning different hues (colors) to each monochromatic (grayscale) image associated with an individual filter. In this case, the assigned colors are: Blue= F435W, Green=F606W, Red= F814W. 

Likewise, the Webb image is a composite of separate exposures acquired by the NIRCam instrument. The color results from assigning different hues (colors) to each monochromatic (grayscale) image associated with an individual filter. In this case, the assigned colors are:   Blue: F090W Green: F150W Red: F444W
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
Data Description
  • Proposal: A description of the observations, their scientific justification, and the links to the data available in the science archive.
  • Science Team: The astronomers who planned the observations and analyzed the data. "PI" refers to the Principal Investigator.
Instrument The science instrument used to produce the data.
Exposure Dates The date(s) that the telescope made its observations and the total exposure time.
Filters The camera filters that were used in the science observations.
About The Image
Color Info A brief description of the methods used to convert telescope data into the color image being presented.
Compass and Scale Image An astronomical image with a scale that shows how large an object is on the sky, a compass that shows how the object is oriented on the sky, and the filters with which the image was made.
