Description


The Brightest of Reionizing Galaxies (BoRG) observations were first obtained in HST Cycle 17 in program GO 11700 (PI: Michele Trenti). BoRG is an ongoing pure-parallel program that obtains WFC3 imaging in four filters (F606W, F098M, F125W, F160W) on random sightlines at high Galactic latitudes (|b| > 30 degrees). BoRG also assimilates data from the similar Hubble Infrared Pure Parallel Imaging Extragalactic Survey (HIPPIES) pure-parallel program (GO 11702; PI: Yan). Data from the HIPPIES program uses the F600LP filter instead of F606W.
