HOU Color Astronomy - Going Further

Color Astronomy:

Here is an alternative method for Dr. Elizabeth Roettger's (She gets so exasperated when I call her doctor.) wildly popular Color Astronomy Lab. Here are some web images to look at through the color filters Dr. ER describes in her lesson and some questions you and your students can ponder.
