Description

This is an image of the bright nebula M78 in Orion taken the night of February 13, 2024 from my backyard in the New Mexico Astronomy Village near Deming, New Mexico. It consists of 18 180-second exposures each through RGB filters. It was taken through a Stellarvue SVX180T refractor telescope with a ZWO ASI6200MM camera. It has been cropped to highlight the nebula.
