Description

This is a hi-res attempt with the new RCOS 16" f/8.4 added to the remote observatory. For the main part of the nebula, 40x1200 secs frames where combined in the light of H-alpha. In order to capture the faintest details contained in Eta Carinae (the "Homunculus" nebula) 50 x 5 secs exposures were combined and blended whith the main image.

This is the color SHO palette version.

Hope you like it
