Title

Spitzer Frontier Fields

Description

The Frontier Fields is a Spitzer and HST Director's Discretionary program of six deep fields centered on strong lensing galaxy clusters in parallel with six deep "blank fields". The second release of the Spitzer Frontier Fields data comprises the Director's Discretionary Time (DDT) and public archival data available for the Frontier Fields clusters as of Dec 1, 2015. These are the deepest observations of clusters and their lensed galaxies ever obtained by Spitzer, and the second deepest observations of blank fields.

This dataset or service is made available by the Infrared Science Archive (IRSA) at IPAC, which is operated by the California Institute of Technology under contract with the National Aeronautics and Space Administration.
