Description

My first attempt at capturing the Rosette Nebula... seeing was terrible, but gave it a shot anyway. This beautiful emission nebula is just 5000 light years away from earth (meaning light from this nebula takes 5000 years to reach us). There are numerous new-born stars within this star forming region (altogether, approximately 2500 young stars are being born here!)
