Pleasing to look at, the gorgeous false-color representation of x-ray data from the Chandra Observatory shows high energies in blue, medium in green, and low energy x-rays in red.
The mosaic spans about 130 light-years at the 26,000 light-year distance of the Galactic Center.
It reveals massive, x-ray emitting star clusters in a crowded environment.
In particular, the Galactic Center cluster and the enormous black hole Sagittarius A* are within the bright region near the bottom.
