Rice Hat nebula (James R Potts)

Celestial hemisphere: Northern · Constellation: Auriga (Aur) · Contains: LBN 769 · PGC 168843 · PGC 168847 · PGC 168851 · PGC 168852 · PGC 168857 · PGC 168862 · PGC 168865 · PGC 168868 · PGC 168869 · Sh2-224

Rice Hat nebula

I originally captured this target in Jan. 2022 with just over 18 hours and mentioned I probably needed 60 plus hours to get better detail. Well I did not quite get to 60, but our Astronomy Club is tackling this project, so between all of us we should easily exceed 60.

Anyway SH2-224 is Sh2-224 is a very faint supernova remnant in the constellation Auriga and is located just 3.5 ° Southeast of the bright star Capella.

The mouse over does show several PGC galaxies and if you zoom in, you can see some detail.

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
