Modern Art by Hubble (2012)

Admittedly this is a pretty silly picture, but I think it is interesting. There are a lot of anomalies (PDF download, 22MB) in Hubble’s data that must be dealt with when processing images, but this is one of those disastrous errors you can’t do much with… unless you try to throw a few of the data sets together to make some modern art! Most people would probably just consider this an eye sore, however.

Data used:
HST_10775_29_ACS_WFC_F606W_03_sci
HST_10775_ab_ACS_WFC_F814W_03_sci
HST_10775_ab_ACS_WFC_F814W_05_sci

Hubble data is public domain, but I put a lot of work into combining it into beautiful color images. The minimal credit line should read: NASA / ESA / J. Schmidt
