                        Astronomy Picture of the Day

    Discover the cosmos! Each day a different image or photograph of our
      fascinating universe is featured, along with a brief explanation
                    written by a professional astronomer.

                                 2023 June 4
    A black and white line drawing depicts a person peering outside of a
   spherical room into a greater universe. Please see the explanation for
                         more detailed information.

                             Color the Universe
                Image Credit: Unknown, possibly C. Flammarion

   Explanation: 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.
