This Hubble image shows NGC 3810, a spiral galaxy some 50 million light-years away in the constellation of Leo. The color image is composed of infrared, optical and ultraviolet observations from both Hubble’s Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) and Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3) instruments. Nine filters were used to sample various wavelengths. The color results from assigning different hues to each monochromatic image associated with an individual filter.
