ChancellorPuddinghead Posted December 29, 2011 Report Share Posted December 29, 2011 Astronomers first discovered the Cosmic Horseshoe in 2007 using data from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. But this Hubble image, taken with the Wide Field Camera 3, offers a much more detailed view of this fascinating object.This picture was created from images taken in visible and infrared light on Hubble’s Wide Field Camera 3. The field of view is approximately 2.6 arcminutes wide.Credit: ESA/Hubble & NASALink - http://www.spacetelescope.org/images/potw1151a/Horseshoe Galaxy?
