Description

This is a first for processing a data set from the AAA Gateway Remote Telescope. The frame has some real challenges especially from a very bright star in the upper left of the frame.  The profile for that star in this rendition is from the Ha filter in 3nm.  That really helped reduce the size and halo around it. What a fun and interesting looking Nebula!  This image was 1.5 hours each of R, G and B. Ha was 9.5 hours.  So the total integration time was 14 hours.
