| Description |
English: A low surface brightness irregular dwarf galaxy which is extensively studied as far as dwarf galaxies go. Individual stars and stellar systems are all easily resolved by HST for this galaxy. A few fuzzy blue patches of glowing gas are visible, clearly indicating that some star formation is happening. Dozens of background galaxies dot the image in reddish hues, and among the background galaxies is a coincidental arrangement of needle-like edgewise spirals gathering near the center of the image.
This was put together using some custom drizzled data made by Meredith Durbin, attribution as follows: NASA/ESA/Meredith Durbin/Judy Schmidt Regarding the processing: The near-infrared data doesn't cover the entire image. It is smaller and diagonally positioned in a way that leaves the corners uncovered. That data came from these proposals: Quantifying Star Formation and Feedback: The M81 Group Dwarf Galaxies A Calibration Database for Stellar Models of Asymptotic Giant Branch Stars Red: WFC3/IR F110W+WFC3/IR F160W Orange: ACS/WFC F606W Cyan: ACS/WFC F475W North is 34.87° clockwise from up. |
