Re: Hubble...Journey through the Orion Nebula

Hi

They are fantastic, but may be very different in reality.

Hubble takes all the photos in black and white, very high resolution grey scale, humans then colour them in.

The above is well worth a read, the colours are part art and part science, the actual object could be more monotone or more colourful than we portray it as.

We are nothing compared to the reality out there. While we worry about the daily affairs of life, all this evolution in space is being created around us

Very true Rudolpho...how lovely to know that humankind is just a mere speck in a vast universe...hopefully we wont get to trash any other planets in it.
