This Hubble image shows a massive galaxy cluster (bottom left corner) and three images of the gravitationally lensed galaxy SGAS 0033+02. The color image was made from separate exposures taken in the visible and infrared regions of the spectrum with Hubble’s Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3). Five filters were used to sample various wavelengths. The color results from assigning different hues to each monochromatic image associated with an individual filter.
