Tips

All of the Chandra images included in this game can be found within the pages of the Chandra Photo Album. Most of the images in the collage are the primary image featured in the photo album page, but some can be found on the "More Images" pages within the object's section. Some of these images have been rotated to the left or right to fit in the collage better. A few of these images are multi-wavelength composites featuring Chandra data as well as data from other telescopes.
