Description

This is an attempt to capture the shockwaves from Cygnus X1 near SH2-101 aka the Tulip Nebula. This is HOO combination with R=Ha; G=0.95_O3+0.05_Ha; B=O3. 22 hours total in about a 2:1 ratio of O3:Ha with 600 subframes. The faint blue horse shoe shaped shockwave I know about but do not know the origin of the tall red pillar which seems to point right to the location of X-1 black hole.

8" Newtonian at F/4.7
