A Close-Up Look of Two of the Extremely Red Galaxies Revealed By Spitzer

Hidden Black Holes Revealed in GOODS Field

The combined power of NASA's Great Observatories - the Hubble Space Telescope, the Chandra X-ray Observatory, and the Spitzer Space Telescope - have been combined to find a hidden population of supermassive black holes in the universe. It took the penetrating view of Spitzer to...

Instrument Comparison of 1/200 of the Full GOODS Fields

(Left) HST ACS image of 1/200 of the full GOODS fields shows three X-ray sources (circled) and many other galaxies. (Right) Combined HST-Spitzer IRAC image of the same region. The two "hard" X-ray sources (yellow circles, indicating sources detected only at the shortest X-ray...

HUDF: If Human Eyes Could See in the Way that Spitzer Can See

The look of the HUDF (outlined area) if human eyes could see in the way that Spitzer can see. The red color of this picture comes from the deepest infrared observations made by the GOODS team using Spitzer. Within the HUDF, which is about 1% the size of the full Moon, the GOODS...
