Herschel Image Processing
Previously I had posted about my entries for the Hubble Hidden Treasures Contest but there are far more datasets available online than just Hubble.
After all the fun I had processing the Hubble images, I decided to try my hand at processing a few images from the Herschel Space Observatory, which is operated by the European Space Agency.
Herschel is used for capturing images in the far infra-red and submillimetre range of the spectrum, and thus gives very different views than what Hubble can give. Similarly to Hubble, these images are stored in a searchable archive available for the public, and the process involved in processing the Hubble images is very similar, with images taken in different wavelengths can be combined into a colour image after processing.
Below is a gallery of images I created out of this archive.
