Description

L: R: G: B: Ha, 3: 3: 3: 3: 7 hrs

I love this interesting galaxy, looks like a colourful fish. Captured over 9 different nights from April 21 -May 30, 2021. I was surprised that there was a supernova in the middle. AT2021 biy was discovered on January 29, 2021 by ATLAS. I didn't know that supernovae last that long!
