Description

I decided to emphasize a smaller part of the Rosette with this square version.

I very much appreciate the detail that is achievable on the Rosette Nebula with HA filters.  This data from Insight/Gemini observatories involved two imaging systems.  System 1 = Telescope: AG10 CDK F6.7 f=1665mm, Camera: FLI Proline 6303, Location:  Lijiang, China (Gemini Observatory).  System 2 = Telescope:  SkyRover 130APO Pro F7 f=910mm, Camera:  AtikOne, Location:  Kunming, China (Yunling Observatory).

A total of 21 fifteen minute HA limages were combined from both systems for a total imaging time of 5.25 hours.  The image was processed with Photoshop and Pixinsight.
