Description

The H-alpha emission is the primary narrowband (NB) signal from this nebula, overshadowing the lesser S2 and even fainter O3 emissions. This results in the nebula's images often displaying predominantly orange hues without subtle blue tones that are usually present in Hubble Palette images. In this image, I've extended the O3 data to its limits to highlight its presence in the nebula around the cone structure. Perhaps an additional thirty to forty hours focused on O3, might unveil more intricate structures within the nebula. This could be a project for the next imaging season
