Description

NGC 7000 - The North America Nebula

this is one of the most popular emission nebulae in the northern hemisphere, resembling the shape of the North American continent. It located in the constellation Cygnus and hence visible throughout summer and fall. This image was intended as a first light of some of our new equipment, more for a proof of concept rather than aquiring the perfect data set. Nevertheless, I think due to the high brightness of the objects it was possible to extract a nice image.
