This module asks the student to compare image of the supernova remnant W28 obtained in the radio wavelength and in a OH 1720 MHz maser line (both obtained with the Very Large Array radio telescope) and X-ray wavelengths obtained with the Chandra X-ray observatory.

The student is asked to work through relationships between the observations of this supernova remnant, using the Blender Tool to compare the spatial relationships of various features in images taken at different wavelengths
