The first ones were on the two Ghost images they picked out of course. But some of the kids are actually quite smart and they started to ask what makes up the gas, and how can we see it and stuff. They've been learning to make images in GIMP and want to see if they can come close to this image by creating their own version of it while looking at it. Hope that would be okay with you David. I'll send some of the results . . . maybe. On Mon, Oct 11, 2010 at 6:24 PM, David Rankin <David@rankinstudio.com>wrote:

Fantastic! I actually showed it to my students and they were stunned and loved it! Boy did I get questions after showing that.

It is 3 hours of exposure and could easily use another 6 hours. I had to push the data hard to get the faint stuff out. Has to be one of the most interesting objects in the night sky.
