This is a view
of Morehouse's Comet created from two black and white photographs
taken at slightly different times. Take a green and red filter (we
suggest GamColor's 650 and 280) and place them over your left and
right eye, respectively. The comet should stand out in a plane in
front of the field of stars. This was a commonly used method in
the 19th century to display solar system astronomical objects like
asteroids, comets and the moon.
