Description

This image of the Veil Nebula (sometimes referred to as the Western Veil Nebula) used narrow band filters to produce this artificial color image. Ten minute exposures through Ha, S2 and O3 filters. A total of 66 subs. The large amount of oxygen produced in a supernova explosion contributed to the blue regions of the nebula.
