GMOS image of M87
This GMOS image shows the field studied, offset from the center of M87, which is the bright region at the top. Hundreds of the point-like objects are globular clusters. The image is made from observations through the g, r, and i filters, which are mapped to blue, green, and red on this color composite image.
