Technical facts about this news release: About the Object Object Name: M82, NGC 3034 Object Description: Starburst Galaxy Position (J2000): R.A. 09h 55m 52s Dec. 69° 40' 49" Constellation: Ursa Major Distance: 12 million light-years (3.7 Megaparsecs) Dimensions: This image is roughly 7.9 arcminutes (28,000 light-years or 8,500 parsecs) wide. About the Data Note: Announcement page with release information on High Level Science Products for M82 (combined and mosaiced fits files for each filter) is available at: http://archive.stsc
[ http://archive.stsc
] Data Description: This image was created from HST data from proposal 10776 M. Mountain (STScI), J. Gallagher (University of Wisconsin-Madison), P. Puxley (NSF), K. Noll, H. Bond, C. Christian, L. Frattare, F. Hamilton, Z. Levay, M. Mutchler, W. Januszewski, and T. Royle (Hubble Heritage Team/STScI/AURA). Instrument: ACS/WFC Exposure Date(s): March 27-29, 2006 Exposure Time: 13.7 hours Filters: F435W("B"), F555W("V"), F658N (H alpha), F814W("I") About the Image Image Credit: NASA, ESA, and The Hubble Heritage Team (STScI/AURA) Release Date: April 24, 2006 Color This image is a composite of many separate exposures made by the ACS instrument on the Hubble Space Telescope using several different filters. Three filters sample broad wavelength ranges, one isolates the light of hydrogen. The color results from assigning different hues (colors) to each monochromatic image. In this case, the assigned colors are: F658N (Hydrogen-alpha) red/orange F814W (I) red F555W (V) green F435W (B) blue Orientation: Happy Sweet Sixteen, Hubble Telescope! - Starburst Galaxy M82 [ http://imgsrc.hubbl

*Description*: This image was taken with a 16" Cassagrain telescope in red, green, blue and Halpha filters. The observation was made January - March 2006 at Panther Observatory [ http://panther-obse
] in Austria. The imager notes that 900 minutes of exposure time were used for this image, a personal record.
