I'm still going through some old images that I wanted to include Chandra data for but have only recently learned how. Look here for N49 without x-rays.

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: I'm still going through some old images that I wanted to include Chandra data for but have only recently learned how. Look here for N49 without x-rays. This time I opted for blue-green to represent x-rays because magenta was already a prominent color in the optical image. It's harder to conflate the two this way.

I will also simply reference this excellent article which more than adequately explains why this object is interesting to view in high energy wavelengths: chandra.harvard.edu/photo/2010/n49/

North is NOT up, but it almost is. It's only 5.3° counter-clockwise from up.
