Description

The Cygnus Loop is a supernova remnant in Cygnus, about 10-20 ky old, at a distance of about 2400 lightyears. This is a mosaic, shot on 5 nights end of July, because even with the 61EDPH @ 275 mm FL I could not fit it all in the FOV of the ASI 183MC. The scope was piggybacked on my RC8 because I tried some planetary imaging during dusk. The Heq-5 did great, guiding only decreased to 1.2" RMS.
