  13. Cassiopeia A is bright at all energies of the electromagnetic spectrum. This composite image shows Cassiopeia A at many different wavelengths: radio polarization in red (VLA), X-rays in green (CHANDRA) and optical in blue (HST). Notice the outer shock, visible only in X-rays, as the thin green rim most visible at the top of the image. Also notice the bright ring which is visible at all three wavelengths, and the many different filamentary structures seen at each wavelength. The compact remains of the exploded star are visible only in X-rays, as the bright green spot slightly below and to the left of the geometric center of the bright ring.
