Description

I captured the broadband data for this image at a dark site owned & maintained by the Charlotte Astronomy Club in rural South Carolina in Taxahaw, SC, which is an hour or so south of the Charlotte metro area & all the light pollution that comes with a major city. I captured the narrowband H-Alpha data from my backyard at home inside the Charlotte city limits.
