Eta Carinae Scale correction: The Eta Carinae
scale was incorrect on the cd-rom. The scale stated the image was 71 arcsec
on a side, but it should actually be 100 arcsec on a side. This would make
the scale bar image incorrect as well. The scale bar graphic represented 5
arcsec, but it should be equal to 6 arcsec. To download a correct version
of the Eta Carinae image with scale bar, please visit the following

E0102-72 Scale correction: The E0102-72 images
with scale bars were incorrect on the cd-rom. The scale bar graphic
represented 1 arcmin, but it should actually be equal to 4.4 arcsec. To
download correct versions of the E0102-72 images with scale bars, please

Orion Trapezium Scale correction: In the text of
the Orion Trapezium handout, the size of the Trapezium cluster should be
described as being 3 light years across instead
of 1.5 light years across. The press release for Orion Trapezium references
a "radius" of 1.5 light years, so the diameter should be 3 light years. To

Addition to Readme File: The folder labelled
"Xtras" on the Chandra Images & Handouts v1.2 CD-ROM contains the
source files required to run the CD's main program and is not a section for
extra usable material. You will be unable to open any of the .dxr files in
the Xtras folder because changes in those files would result in not being
able to run the CD's main program.
