Description

The number of clear nights over the last 4 months in Wisconsin have been the worst in my memory.. managed to get some data on this over these months. Could have definitely used some more data.

Sharpless2-171 is part of a bigger nebula, NGC 7822, in Cepheus. It is an emission nebula with elephant trunks, or pillars, carved by stellar winds of the hot bright stars within the nebula
