Making HST Pictures: Examples and Illustrations . ... These illustrations represent some of the steps and techniques used to produce “pretty pictures” from HST images. ... TIFFs (ftp) . ... Separate images are exposed through different color filters. ... An alternate way to make color images . ... Eight bit (one byte) images contain 256 different values that may be represented by 256 shades of gray or 256 arbitrary colors from a color map (or palette) of all possible colors. ...

... In one situation, we can use light from quasars to probe the material between us and them because that light may pass through one or more galaxies or gas clouds on its way to us. The gas inside the galaxies or the intergalactic clouds acts then as a filter, absorbing selected wavelengths from the quasar light. ... Light from a quasar must pass through clouds of gas and even faint galaxies -- each leaving its imprint on the light -- before we receive it here on Earth. ... Gravitational lensing . ...

. The image is a composite of separate exposures made by the WFC3 instrument on the Hubble Space Telescope. Three filters were used to sample broad wavelength ranges in the near infrared. The color results from assigning different hues (colors) to each monochromatic image. In this case, the assigned colors are: F105W (Y) blue; F125W (J) green; F160W (H) red. NASA/ESA/G. Illingworth/R.

Astronomers usually measure the flux of an object by collecting light with a telescope, sending it through a known filter, and then determining the power. ... But astronomers usually give their photometric results in terms of magnitudes. ... Astronomers define an absolute magnitude that is independent of the distance of a star and only depends on the intrinsic properties of the object: the absolute magnitude is the magnitude the star would have if it were 10 parsecs away from the Earth. ...

... As an experiment, I made some three-color images of Messier 42, more commonly known as the Great Nebula of Orion. ... green enhanced . ... halfsize or fullsize . ... Each image is a ``true color'' composite of three monochromatic images, in which the red, green, and blue intensities each correspond to the intensity of one of the original images. ... The HST image is assembled from different filters than mine: red is Nitrogen [II] at 6583 , green is H-alpha at 6563 , and blue is O [III] at 5007 . ...

Describes how spatial region boundaries are handled. The golden rule for spatial region filtering was first enunciated by Leon VanSpeybroeck in 1986: . ... With this in mind, the rules for determining whether a boundary image pixel or table row are assigned to a region are defined below. For image filtering, pixels whose center is inside the boundary are included. ... That is, an row is inside the boundary without regard to its integerized pixel value. ...

... 11 Yellow-Green (78% transmission): Contrasts well with the red and blue characteristics of surface features on Jupiter and Saturn. ... 82A Light Blue (73% transmission): Useful on the Moon, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn, this subtle pale blue filter enhances areas of low contrast while avoiding significant reduction of overall image brightness. ...

... BBSYN is used to set the frequency for the BBC or digital filter assigned to each baseband channel (subband channel in EVLA terminology). ... All baseband channels assigned to the same physical BBC should be assigned the same frequency. ... For the VLBA DAR and MkIV systems, the baseband frequency must be set on even 10 kHz frequencies. ... The PFB personality of the RDBE, ( DBE = RDBE_PFB ) has rather rigid baseband frequency options. ... Argument: Up to 16 frequencies in MHz. ...
