Saw this great false colour IR image of part of Carina Neb. from here
http://www.spitzer.caltech.edu/Media...2005-12a.shtml

Superimposed the false colour IR image on the visible image with Registar.If you alternate between the two images you can see the good correlation.Makes you wonder what we can't see.

Using Firefox's tabs makes a great 'Blink comparator'. Works a treat. Great pics. Lot of different gas/dust/radiation structure there. The diff. is amazing. Well picked.

Yes I did not know whether to put it here or science.I thought it was important.
The correlation is amazing,OK in hindsight the glowing bits are in front of the dusty bits.
