NGC 4535
This beautiful image is the core of galaxy NGC 4535! This galaxy is located in the constellation Virgo about 54 million light-years away. It is a barred spiral galaxy and while only two arms are shown near the core, there are many more that spiral off in the whole galaxy!
The image was taken by the Hubble Space Telescope. It was an image created using five greyscale images that were colorized in Photoshop CC. The images used were:
RED: idxr28030_drz
GREEN: idxr28070_drz
BLUE: idxr28060_drz
BLUE: idxr28050_drz
BLUE: idxr28040_drz
Resources:
These images are associated with Hubble proposal 15654: PHANGS-HST: Linking Stars and Gas throughout the Scales of Star Formation
This image was processed by myself, Alexandra Nachman, on 06/23/21 using data from the Hubble Legacy Archive. Images taken by NASA/ESA/Hubble Space Telescope.
