Orion comparison

The big image is the Orion star-forming nebula photographed by the Hubble Space Telescope. The inset image is a natural-color image of the same object taken using the red, green, and blue filters on the MicroObservatory telescopes.

รข€œI think it's neat how multiple black-and-white images can be combined and colorized to create one full color image!
