Surprisingly, people are sometimes wrong on the internet. There are a lot of mislabeled astronomical images out there.
How can you find images of space from trusted sources? Try AstroPix. It offers access to the public image galleries from leading astronomical observatories under a single unified interface. Search by object name or coordinates, or use the free text to search titles, captions, and topics.
