Description

It's amazing what names you come across on the internet. This is what the nebula is called. A galaxy is visible in the "mouth" of the dragon, but it is obviously much further away from us than the molecular cloud.

This recording is the first from the new location, which is under one of the best skies in the country. From Bortle's 3, it was immediately apparent that there were such mists in the background.

Unfortunately, the light pollution at the previous location was so strong that the light price was too high for the cooled CMOS camera.
