Description

another night another image, actually 2 nights of imaging for this one...and with an almost full moon. amazing! Stay safe everyone, hope you can image from your home.

The Elephant's Trunk Nebula is a concentration of interstellar gas and dust about 2,400 light years away from Earth. I might take some hydrogen alpha image data tonight and improve this image.
