Green line?

• by GoldenRule

  I'm curious if this is just a mistake or if the green actually means something, first time I've seen it. 2mass view

  no green line in 2Mass unless zoomed in. that is an artifact of field overlap.

  Only way I can post the image from aladin but it's the 2mass view. What program do you use? I seen something you posted it looked similar to aladin.

  Green line is parallel to row of ccds, so I would say bright light is bleeding into the row of ccds.
