How NASA processes images taken with the Hubble telescope video

Many believe that due to the presence of the Hubble telescope in orbit, we get such high-quality images of very distant objects of the Universe, which can be seen on the NASA website. In fact, high-quality pictures, high resolution. But what Hubble gives out are black and white photographs. Where did all these colors attract our attention? Almost all of these "beautiful" appear after using the graphical editor. Paraphrasing the well-known quotation, we can say that "Photoshop is NASA's best friend."

In general, this post slightly overlaps with the theme of Mars , where it was told that the Red Planet by no means can look on our sky like two full moons.

Probably, many people didn’t hear how pictures of space objects are obtained, considering that they are immediately colored and bright. Unfortunately, this is not the case. Below you can watch a video demonstrating how to add color. One can only wonder how much time NASA specialists spend on image processing of space objects.
