Henry VIII tapestry all lite up


Somehow scientists have "restored" a 500 year old tapestry by shining bright beams of light on it in order to display what the original colors would have been like.

According to the Telegraph, "High-definition projectors have now been used to beam two million pixels of different coloured light on to the tapestry"

It is on display at Hampton Court Palace.
