Description

This is a tough one under Bortle 8 skies but it is worth a try. My very first image with my new Skywatcher Star adventurer GTi. Quite impressive for such a small package.
This is a large region with the remains of a supernova explosion with colorful filaments of dust and gas combined with these HII rich patches of sky. This target would beg for dark skies.
