From Earth to the Universe (FETTU) is a collection of astronomical images that showcases the most dramatic views of our Universe. The images represent the incredible variety of astronomical objects that are known to exist – planets, comets, stars, nebulae, galaxies and the clusters in which they congregate – and is being exhibited in over 250 locations throughout the world in 2009 and 2010.
The images in the "From Earth to the Universe" project have been selected to represent the wide range of telescopes and observations available in modern astronomy. All the images are in color. In the visible light or optical images, the colors are approximately how you would see them if you were close enough and your eyes sensitive enough
Oranmore Library is the latest venue for this fantastic exhibition. It runs until 18th September and was provided with the assistance of Astronomy Ireland.
