(infrared deep-survey to detect galaxies)

The FourStar Galaxy Evolution Survey (ZFOURGE or Z-FOURGE) was a survey of three existing survey fields, COSMOS, CDFS, and UDS, using the Magellan Telescopes' FourStar near infrared camera. It determined redshifts for 60,000 galaxies within the 1 < z < 3 range.
