Wouldn't it be fun to color in the universe? If you think so, please accept this famous astronomical illustration as a preliminary substitute. You, your friends, your parents or children, can print it out or even color it digitally. While coloring, you might be interested to know that even though this illustration has appeared in numerous places over the past 100 years, the actual artist remains unknown. Furthermore, the work has no accepted name -- can you think of a good one? The illustration, first appearing in a book by Camille Flammarion in 1888, is frequently used to show that humanity's present concepts are susceptible to being supplanted by greater truths.

Coloring the universe? Well, I'll get right on it with my non-existent crayons. But seriously, I have always wondered about the real colors and shades present in the Universe beyond what our eyes could perceive. Nonetheless, this illustration explores the limits of imagination as we try to conceptualize something that is beyond our grasp.
