Fig. 3: The chance of seeing a satellite trail in an HST image with the average exposure duration of 11.2 min, scaled to the width of the ACS/WFC FoV (202″) and only including broadband filters with λ > 400 nm.

The numbers n denote the total number of HST images in each bin. The chance was calculated using equation (4). The uncertainty uc was calculated using equation (5).
