Cette image est un assemblage de 6 "tuiles" de 90mn de pose chacune. Cet assemblage a été réalisé avec Photoshop et sa fonction "Photomerge" dans "Automatisation". Le recouvrement entre les tuiles est d'environ 20%. La lunette est diaphragmée à 130 mm (pour 150 mm initialement) pour réduire les effets de vignettage. Cette réduction est réalisée grâce à un masque placé circulairement contre la lentille d'ouverture et comportant deux fils destinés à produire des aigrettes (visibles sur les étoiles Les plus lumineuses).
Les deux nébuleuses NGC7000 la nébuleuse d'Amérique du Nord et IC5070 la nébuleuse du Pélican sont situées dans la constellation du Cygne. La distance à la Terre de NGC7000 est estimée à 2600al tandis que NGC5070 serait située à 2000al de notre système solaire. Ce sont des nébuleuses en émission donc constitués de gaz ionisé qui absorbent la lumière d'une étoile voisine et réémet cette lumière sous forme d'énergie en donnant les nuances de couleurs variées visibles sur l'image.

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
