Description

Imaged with Paul Kummer.
2 Panel mosaic from RASA 8/ ASI2600MC Pro/Avalon Linear. Most of what you see is from the RASA 8 but the stars come from an earlier rendition using Tak FSQ106 and Atik 11000 mono CCD. (The RASA data were taken before we had improved our cable routing in front of the corrector, slightly affecting star shapes.) There is also a small addition of Ha from the earlier image but it really only affects the small Ha nebula isolated lower left.
The range of colours from the emission nebula is much more varied than in the original Tak image, in which the emission was mostly from the Ha and, as usual, the RASA/CMOS has gone deeper.
