Description

Mouse over is a monochrome Halpha wider field to provide context, a 5nm Astrodon filter was used.

G132.7+01.3 Is one of the largest Super Nova Remnants in our galaxy. Measuring 186x258 light years across. This is a very dim object that is most often overlooked when folks image the famous "Heart Nebula".


Seen below in the monochrome Halpha, the SNR is nearly centered in the frame. A thin shell with shock boundries clearly visible, just below the "Fish Head Nebula" and the "Heart Nebula". This image was taken with a 3" F/4 astrograph, STL11000M, and 5nm Astrodon filters in 2015...
