Chromoscope

Ever wanted X-ray specs or super-human vision? Chromoscope lets you explore the entire sky, including our Galaxy (the Milky Way) and the distant Universe, in a range of wavelengths spanning the electromagnetic spectrum: gamma-ray, x-ray, visible, hydrogen α, near-infrared, far-infrared, microwave and radio light.

Change the wavelength using the slider in the top right of the screen and explore space using your mouse. For more information we have a quick video tour or you can read more on our blog. If you get stuck, click "Help" in the bottom left.

Chromoscope is kindly funded by the Cardiff University Astronomy and Astronomy Instrumentation Groups.
