Image of galaxy cluster MACS0416 captured in visible light by Hubble’s ACS and WFC3 and in infrared light by Webb’s NIRCam, with compass arrows, scale bar, and color key for reference.

Summary[edit]

Description
English: Image of galaxy cluster MACS0416 captured in visible light by Hubble’s ACS and WFC3 and in infrared light by Webb’s NIRCam, with compass arrows, scale bar, and color key for reference.

The north and east compass arrows show the orientation of the image on the sky. Note that the relationship between north and east on the sky (as seen from below) is flipped relative to direction arrows on a map of the ground (as seen from above). The scale bar is labeled in arcminutes, which is an angle on the sky equivalent to one-60th of a degree. (The scale bar is half an arcminute long.) The full image is approximately 2.2 acrminutes across. This image shows visible and near-infrared wavelengths of light that have been translated into colors. The color key shows which Hubble ACS and WFC3 and Webb NIRCam filters were used when collecting the light. The color of each filter name is the visible light color used to represent the light that passes through that filter.
