| Note: | The Brightest of Reionizing Galaxies (BoRG) Survey is a large Hubble Space Telescope Program focused on finding rare and bright galaxy candidates at redshift z∼8. Over 50 fields have been acquired with WFC3 in four bands for a total area exceeding 250arcmin2. See also the website: https://wolf359.colorado.edu/ |
