Micro-observatory Image 4.8

This Micro-Observatory image is of the Crab Nebula (Messier 1). You are not able to see the distinctive filaments of the object, but you can make-out it's prolate spheroid shape. The Crab Nebula eminates more blues and greens in the visible spectra, so those are the colors that dominate the image. All I did in terms of processing it are automatically adjusting all three parts of the image via log and reducing the noise of them. In the lower right corner of the image you can still see some noise so there may have been a cloud there at the time the pictures were taken.
