Enjoy ... I do !! quote:

![]() Hey .. glad you liked it ... it's one of our sister sites ... my lot tend to do more on the "huge lists of numbers and unfathomable graphs" sort of space science, but we do also have a team which co-ordinates the European Hubble stuff. |

![]() So I recently saw a special on Discovery Channel (or some such channel, could have been any one of 3 in my area) talking about the images the Hubble takes. They mentioned that the Hubble actually takes the images in black and white and the color is added later based on something like binary info attached to each picture. |

![]() Actually bhodi, if you follow some of the links beleow my link, you'll find out a lot about the technology. When I get too work this a.m. I'll take a look on the science site (my site) and see if I can find any Hubble technology to complement the PR I posted .... although it will probably be pretty raw tech. info, and bad HTML if I do .... As a starter, on the PR site (link above), take the flash tour of the vehicle, it lets you take it to bits and describes the various instruments. |
