[list]Revelation 6:7-8: I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see.
[list]And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name
that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him.[/list][/list]
[quote=" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four_Horsemen_of_the_Apocalypse"]

<<The fourth and final horsemen of the Apocalypse is named Death. Of all the riders, he is the only one to whom the text itself explicitly gives a name. Unlike the other three, he is not described carrying a weapon/object, instead he is followed by Hades. However, illustrations—like those above—commonly depict him carrying a scythe or a sword. The color of Death's horse is written as khlôros (χλωρóς) in the original Greek, which is often translated as "pale", though "ashen", "pale green", and "yellowish green" are other possible interpretations. The color suggests the sickly pallor of a corpse.>>[/quote]

darren - SSShhhhhhhhhh!! - Let false colored horse looking Nebula's lie.((you don't want to spoil it))

Yes, it's a beautiful image. But it's upside down.

Very nice image! Great colors, high resolution... what do you want more?

It's all very clear to me now! :lol: 8-)

So there really is a Glodfather after all.

The horsehead also appears in [url=http://asterisk.apod.com/viewtopic.php?f=29&t=19462]this thread[/url], second image.

Yeah, those pictures are pretty cool, its like when you think you see something in the clouds.

Nice picture! nice colors. Definitive, but not overstated. Its nice to see so many things in one view that seem to be so harmonious. Kinda peaceful.

[b] Explanation: [/b] The clouds surrounding the star system Rho Ophiucus compose one of the closest star forming regions. [url=http://stars.astro.illinois.edu/sow/rhooph.html]Rho Ophiucus itself[/url] is a [url=http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap970219.html]binary star system[/url] visible in the light-colored region on the image right. The star system, located only 400 [url=http://earthsky.org/astronomy-essentials/how-far-is-a-light-year]light years[/url] away, is distinguished by its [url=http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap070903.html]colorful surroundings[/url], which include a red [url=http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/emission_nebulae.html]emission nebula[/url] and numerous light and dark brown dust lanes. Near the upper right of the Rho Ophiucus [url=http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap070321.html]molecular cloud system[/url] is the yellow star [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antares]Antares[/url], while a distant but coincidently-superposed [url=http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/globular_clusters.html]globular cluster[/url] of stars, [url=http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap000523.html]M4[/url], is visible between Antares and the red [url=http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/emission_nebulae.html]emission nebula[/url]. Near the image bottom lies IC 4592, the [url=http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap090521.html]Blue Horsehead nebula[/url]. The blue glow that surrounds the Blue Horsehead's eye -- and other stars around the image -- is a reflection nebula composed of fine dust. On the [url=http://deepskycolors.com/astro/2010/05/mb_2010-05-15_AroundRho.jpg]above image[/url] left is a geometrically angled reflection nebula [url=http://astrosurf.com/lorenzi/ccd/sh2-1_ccd.htm]cataloged[/url] as [url=http://galaxymap.org/cgi-bin/details.py?id=21426&t=hii&s=4_p31.0xp32.5&name=S1]Sharpless 1[/url]. Here, the bright star near the dust vortex creates the light of surrounding [url=http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/reflection_nebula.html]reflection nebula[/url]. Although most of [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rho_Ophiuchi_cloud_complex]these features[/url] are visible through a small telescope pointed toward the constellations of [url=http://seds.org/maps/stars_en/fig/ophiuchus.html]Ophiucus[/url], [url=http://chandra.harvard.edu/photo/constellations/scorpius.html]Scorpius[/url], and [url=http://chandra.harvard.edu/photo/constellations/sagittarius.html]Sagittarius[/url], the only way to see the intricate details of the dust swirls, as featured above, is to use a [url=http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap070613.html]long exposure[/url] camera.
