The green galaxy

[Nightblizzard]

Blue and red stars exist... sometimes I've even seen green stars. Not sure whether it's the camera or whether they really exist . Anyways, now I even stumbled across a green galaxy:

Found another one:

Ooh, I haven't seen any green ones yet.

[NNM]

I've seen some of those...
But I also noticed that when zooming a bit out: we have green areas in the universe!!! Some areas seem to be covered with these greenies. Dunno what green means...

I found this very green one.

The colours are not completely realistic, and I think green is actually red (and red is infrared)! But I'll check that...
Although, having a green area of the Universe suggests that something might have gone a little wrong with one of the filters.

Yes, the colours of the RGB images correspond to the filters:

blue - g-band (green to human eyes)
green - r-band (red to human eyes)
red - i-band (near-infrared, invisible to human eyes)

It's briliant. I have seen some green-red-blue one, but i lost the number

Doppler shift?

... I think green is actually red ...

I had some difficulty believing this one was entirely real colour:

Too bad the colours aren't real :p green stars/galaxies would be very nice x)

Have a go at the color of this one:

Have a go at the color of this one:

I just got a similar one:

I suppose there just could be a lot of reds and blues.  It would be really interesting to see a closer (higher resolution) galaxy with the same color.

Everything looks green around that galaxy
