How Hubble's imaging goes from black and white to color
... by analyzing the wavelengths of light that different elements emit in space, 'dull' pictures of our universe into colorful masterpieces
Zolt Levay, of the Imaging Team at the Space Telescope Science Institute
The Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (STIS) was installed onboard HST during Servicing Mission (SM) 2 in 1997 and operated until an electronic failure in 2004. It resumed operations with all ultraviolet and optical channels in 2009 after it was successfully repaired during SM4.
STIS is a versatile imaging spectrograph, providing spatially resolved spectroscopy in the UV and optical, high spatial resolution echelle spectroscopy in the UV, solar-blind imaging in the UV, and direct and coronagraphic imaging in the optical.
