Recolor the Universe 2017 Dimensions: 6" x 6" Coloring the Universe/Computing does not end with computers. Grades 4-12 students can learn how astronomers use computers to create images and understand their data (no prior coding experience necessary). Working with data from NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory and other telescopes on topics from exploded stars, to star-forming regions, to the area around black holes, students learn basic coding (for beginners - no experience required) and follow a video tutorial to create a real world application of science, technology and even art.

Stellar Evolution Handout 2017 Dimensions: 8.5" x 11" A star's ultimate fate depends on its mass. It can fade into obscurity (brown dwarf or red dwarf), become a white dwarf (sun-like stars), explode as a supernova and leave behind a neutron star or a black hole (massive to very massive stars), or be disrupted entirely (white dwarfs in close binary systems, or extremely massive stars).

3D Print SN87a 2017 Dimensions: 6" x 6" Learn how to print your own 3D copies of an exploded star, SN 1987A. (one page, double sided, full color) View   Link to PDF

Women in the High-Energy Universe 2017 Dimensions: 8.5" x 11" Women in the High-Energy Universe highlights and promotes the many important ways that women contribute to the pursuit of understanding the Universe through high-energy astrophysics. We've asked various women connected with NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory to tell us -in their own words- about their experiences and perspectives of their careers.

Blast from the Past 2017 Dimensions: 12" x 30" Every 50 years or so, a star in our Galaxy blows itself apart in a supernova explosion, one of the most violent events in the universe. The force of these explosions produces spectacular light shows. Explosions in past millennia have been bright enough to catch the attention of early astronomers hundreds of years before the telescope had been invented. (one page, full color) View   Link to PDF

Stellar Evolution Poster 2017 Dimensions: 36" x 24" A star's ultimate fate depends on its mass. It can fade into obscurity (brown dwarf or red dwarf), become a white dwarf (sun-like stars), explode as a supernova and leave behind a neutron star or a black hole (massive to very massive stars), or be disrupted entirely (white dwarfs in close binary systems, or extremely massive stars).
