Description

This image of the Bubble Nebula was taken with a QHY168C OSC camera and an Optolong L-eXtreme dual narrow band filter.  The image was taken with my 130mm APO and is based on thirty two, 600 second exposures.  In the upper right corner is NGC7538, which is a stellar nursery containing many proto stars.  One of the proto stars has a mass estimated at 800x that of the Sun, making it one of the most massive stars known.
