Footprint of the WFPC2 images for each of the three sets of HST observations of NGC 4449 shown superposed on a V-band ground-based image. The ground-based image was obtained for us by P. Massey using the 4 m telescope at Kitt Peak National Observatory (Hunter, van Woerden, & Gallagher 1999). (Funded in part by the Lowell Research Fund and by NSF through grant AST-9616940 to DAH. Work by AEG was funded by the NSF through the Research Experiences for Undergraduates program, under grant number 9423921 to Northern Arizona University.)


A false-color combination of three images of the irregular galaxy NGC 4449. F814W (=I) is shown in red, F555W (=V) is in green, and F336W (=U) is blue. This is position 1 in the previous image.
