Did you ever notice whenever a 3-D view is shown they say to use red and blue glasses? :roll: The picture seems to be in red and green; however, unless my computer isn't showing the colors right. The links in the explanation are in blue; and looks blue so I doubt it is the screen color. :?

The colors look more like a magenta and turquoise on this notebook. I'll log in from the main system and check them again laters. Taken the Sabbath off and watching some movies. :D

got the 3D glasses and it is a cool picture. Wonder if APOD can provide us with an anaglyth of the universe and we can see it in 3D using the same method :D
