This image is a composite of separate exposures made by the WFC3 instrument on the Hubble Space Telescope.
Three filters were used to sample broad wavelength ranges in the near-infrared.
In 2004, Hubble created the Hubble Ultra Deep Field (HUDF), the deepest visible-light image of the Universe.

The farthest, merely dim points of light in this view offer a peek at the universe as it looked just 600 million years after the Big Bang.
The representation is "natural" in that shorter infrared wavelengths are represented as blue and the longer wavelengths as red.
