The first in a line of videos addressing frequently asked questions, and great science questions.
Yes, I'm aware of the spelling error made on the very first slide in the very fourth word. Epic fail on my part. Unfortunately, I tend to read over my mistakes when I stare at something for hours. It shall be preserved as a testament to my fallibility :3
*A note about "true colour" images. Though the images are produced to represent true or approximately true colours, you will often find they appear white to your eye through a telescope. There are a couple of reasons for this. Firstly, light from the stars dazzles the receptors in your eyes, and secondly your brain is extremely capable of 'white balancing' what you see. To demonstrate this to yourself, try taking a picture of a fluorescent lamp the next time you see one. Though it appears white to your eyes, your camera will show you that it is actually green!
