CTB-1 (Abel 85) - Faint Radio SNR

This is my first deep integration with the ASI1600MM-Cool. The image started out as a 7-hour total integration, 4h Ha and 3h OIII. The image has recently been updated to a 24-hour total integration, with 12h in both Ha and OIII.

Further integration in both channels has continued to reveal fainter fine structural details in the region of space surrounding the primary SNR structure of CTB-1. These outer faint structures exhibit in both Ha as well as OIII. Many outer structures exhibit only in OIII as well, which has me quite intrigued, as the deeper I go, the more structure there seems to be. In particular are structures just over the "stem" of the CTB-1 object, as well as what appears to be an enveloping shell around the Ha structures along the right edge of the image (a mosaic is apparently in order to discover more about those structures.)

Due to the increasing prevalence of faint filamentary Oxygen gas structures, I am continuing to integrate data for that channel. Current target is to get 24h OIII, and 16h Ha. As a long-term stretch goal, I may aim for 36-48h of OIII, to see how deep the rabbit hole goes. ;)

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
