[QUOTE]Originally posted by Mark Nguyen: [QB] If you looked at those Hubble pictures under the visible spectrum, you'd normally see the stars. All the nebulaic clouds and gasses? For the most part, they're only seen in spectra of light that the human eye can't normally see. Hubble records images in those spectra and then NASA / JPL / whoever modifies them so we can see them. You know infrared goggles? They take light in infrared waves that we can't see, and promotes their wavelengths electronically to something we can. Same thing with space telescopes and IR / NIR / UV / X spectra, among things. That said, the B5 backgrounds were almost exclusively those pictures taken directly from the modified images you caan purchase or that have been released to the public domain, and barely altered them at all. Made the B5 universe look like the Electric Light Parade to me. :p Trek backgrounds, when they got around to doing them, are IMO uniformly better suited to the general colour palette of the given show.
