HH 34 (2014)

A little blurrier than one would hope for but still an interesting color composite that hasn’t been done quite the same for this object. There are some large arcs of cloud at either end of HH34’s jets which are unseen and off the edge of the frame in this image. See these features here.

Movement in the foreground jet was significant between the WFPC2 and WFC3 imagery epochs so the jet here is represented only by the WFC3 imagery. I used a channel mixer adjustment layer to use only WFC3 data for all channels in the area of the image where the jet is present.

Red: WFC3 IR F160W
Green: hst_05114_02_wfpc2_f850lp_wf_sci
Blue: hst_05114_02_wfpc2_f702w_wf_sci

North is NOT up. It is 41.8° clockwise from up.
