[SAPOD]Introducing today’s space imagery. We introduce characteristic images introduced by sorae in the past, attractive images released by space agencies around the world, and images sent by space astronomy fans and experts. (There is a link to the original article at the end of the article)

- sorae – Jupiter photographed in infrared, visible light, and ultraviolet light from Hawaii and space
This is an image of “Jupiter taken with infrared, visible light, and ultraviolet light” that sorae introduced in the article on May 24, 2021.

All of them were taken at the same time, and from left to right, Jupiter was captured in infrared, visible light, and ultraviolet wavelengths. In addition, images taken with infrared rays and ultraviolet rays, which are invisible to the human eye, are pseudo-colored.

- Visible light and ultraviolet photography: Hubble Space Telescope “Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3)”
Observing celestial bodies with electromagnetic waves of various wavelengths (multi-wavelength observation),We can see properties and structures that could not be seen when observing only at specific wavelengths.
Glossary
[Multi-wavelength observation]
Multi-wavelength observation is an observation method that uses multiple wavelengths to observe celestial bodies from various angles and is useful for research. Visible light, infrared rays, ultraviolet rays, X-rays, etc. are used. Wavelengths invisible to the human eye are mainly colored as pseudo-color images.
