Beschreibung:

A new picture of NGC 3147 from Hubble, comprised of data collected very recently, some of which was taken just a couple of weeks ago. This is in near-infrared and visible light, so the dust lanes look extra reddish. There's a certain transparency to the disk showing reddish background galaxies that I quite like, thanks to the near-infrared wavelengths in the red channel. It's one of those galaxies that fits nicely within the Hubble footprint, so this is a nearly complete picture of the brighter parts of the whole object.

I enhanced the saturation and clarity of the whole galaxy, and the center dust lanes have been greatly sharpened. The small hole left where the chip gaps intersected near the nucleus was filled with data cloned 180° from the other side of the nucleus.

This image was creating using data from the Proposal That Just Keeps Giving. The Hubble Constant to 1%: Physics beyond LambdaCDM

Red: WFC3/IR F160W Green: WFC3/UVIS F814W Blue: WFC3/UVIS F555W

North is NOT up. It is 42.64° clockwise from up.
