Description

The Sadr Region; I don't know if this has an actual name, I usually call it the Sadr Butterfly, but it is impressive with the sheer amount of H-alpha that is in this region.  I think this was my best night of imaging so far with this setup.  There were some complication, but the rig performed amazingly well, despite the fact that I initially forgot to level out the tripod.  But I trusted in the ASIair to keep things running smoothly and it was really nice to be able to sleep through an entire session instead of staying up until sunrise.  And finally, I'm able to get a decent amount of exposure time on more than just stars.  Even at this beginning of my post-processing this looked better than any emission nebula I've captured before.  Now that I have confidence in my rig to run itself, I'm looking forward to piling far more integration time into these images.
