Summary
[edit]DescriptionCas A Technicolor Dreamcoat (53452031625).png |
English: I've done a lot of visualizations of Cas A over the past year plus, and I'm happy to be able to share one. This is one of my favorites! It shows the supernova remnant Cas A in multiwavelength infrared color from JWST, and x-ray from Chandra in cyan. Stars are visible light imagery from Hubble overlaid in their appropriate positions, largely invisible to infrared and x-ray telescopes.
Separated wavelength layers can be viewed at the Chandra website, along with a much more awesome description than I could ever come up with: chandra.harvard.edu/photo/2024/casa/ There's also a NASA article! www.nasa.gov/image-article/nasa-telescopes-chase-down-gre... North is up. |
