Description

Here's an image of The Helix Nebula that I processed from an Observation Bundle in Telescope Live.  This is 6h 40min of 600s H and OIII subs taken by their CHI-1 PlaneWave CDK24/FLI ProLine PL9000 located at El Sauce Observatory, Chile.
The Helix Nebula is a planetary nebula in Aquarius that's very close to us, at a distance of 655 light-years and spans 2.5 light-years, making it one of the closest planetary nebula's.
Anyway, hope ya like it!
Tom
