      Description

      Very large, diffuse nebula in the constellation Ophiuchus. This is a 25 tile mosaic in Hydrogen alpha. Part of a 300 tile southern milky way mosaic in progress. Processing style enabled the visibility of faint background hydrogen alpha gas that fills the extent of the entire region well beyond the confines of this image.
