Is that like an undercooked parsnip?
*Get there in a parsec*??? 3.26156 Lightyears away??? Ummm - ermmm, not in your lifetime, ergo, using the best methods we have today for space travel you will die before you reach that distance.
Alot of the *lewd* astrophotographs with phantasmagorical colors are really *false color images*, especially those from X-Ray observational platforms. The simple reason being that X-Rays belong to the *invisible* light spectrum. The colors are chosen to help illustrate details not otherwise apparent.
Here's are samples of false color astro-images:

*If a man wants God to hear his prayer quickly, then before he prays for anything else, even his own soul, when he stands and stretches out his hands towards God, he must pray with all his heart for his enemies. Through this action God will hear everything that he asks* -Abba Zeno-
*Protagoras: "Truth is subjective. What is true for you, and what is true for me, is true for me. Your opinion is true by virtue of its being your opinion."
*Socrates: "My opinion is: Truth is absolute, not opinion, and that you are in absolute error. Since this is my opinion, then according to your philosophy you must grant that it is true."
