At the suggestion of a couple of associates, I did a redo of the Crab
Morph
and added some details about it on my website.

This animation is a morphing of an image of the Crab Nebula taken by me
through narrowband emission line filters ([SII], Ha and [OIII]) with a
composite image from the Chandra website created by combining Radio,
Optical
and XRAY data. Credits for the composite image a
(Credits: X-ray: NASA/CXC/ASU/J. Hester et al.; Optical: NASA/HST/ASU/J.
Hester et al.; Radio: VLA/NRAO)

In the case of the emission line images, Red= [SII], Ha= Green and [OIII]=
Blue. For the Composite image, Red= Radio, Green= Optical, Blue= XRAY.

The animation with several relevant hyperlinks can be found he

It is interesting to me to watch how the optical regions transform into
radio and xray emitting regions as the animation progresses. From the
perspective of visualization of the physical processes at work in The
Crab,
I suspect this sort of composite and morphing is very useful.
