Required

When astronomers create images, they make choices to emphasize features of scientific or artistic interest -- or both! NASA instruments, MicroObservatory and other telescopes can detect a wide range of colors. This includes colors that are visible to our eyes, as well as colors that are invisible to our eyes like infrared and X-ray light.

Please share why you chose the image(s) that you processed, and how you enhanced the visible and/or invisible colors in your image.
