                        Adaptively Smoothed Chandra
                        Image 
This Chandra X-ray image, which represents X-rays within the range of 0.5 to 7 keV, of the Centaurus cluster has been adaptively smoothed.

                        3 Color Unsmoothed X-ray Image of
                        Centaurus Cluster 
In this Chandra image of the Centaurus cluster, which has not been adaptively smoothed, X-rays in the range of 0.5 to 1 keV are red, 1 to 2 keV are green, and those between 2 and 7 keV are blue.
