Norberts's Chandra Gallery

This page is designed to host a lot of pretty pictures obtained from Chandra observations from the public archive. Some of the images originate from data sets I came across in the early days just out of pure excitement, some are by-products from calibration analysis, some are contributed from collegues, who are just as excited as I am. As soon as I have more, I will certainly share them with you all. Just lean back and enjoy the pretty pictures, I don't think they need much explanation for now..... ...well, don't think at all for a change....
