Are colours in astronomical images real?
Images of galaxies and nebulae often look very colourful. But where do these colours come from? Are they real? What do they mean?
In this episode of Chasing Starlight we show you everything that goes behind the scenes when making astronomical images, from how astronomical detectors actually work to how we choose what colours to display.
