Hello :

Un petit détour par la nébuleuse du Pac-Man ! et comme elle se situe en plein milieu d'un gros nuage de Ha, et bien on a poussé dessus a l'acquisition !
Et en voyant la quantité de Ha autour, on a bien fait !

NGC 281 , IC 11 ou Sh2-184 est une nébuleuse à émission brillante qui fait partie d'une région H II dans la constellation de Cassiopée et fait partie du bras spirale de Persée de la Voie lactée .
Cette nébulosité est également associée à l'amas ouvert IC 1590 , à plusieurs globules de Bok et à l'étoile multiple, B 1. Elle forme collectivement Sh2-184, s'étendant sur une zone plus large de 40 minutes d'arc.
Familièrement, NGC 281 est également connu sous le nom de nébuleuse Pac-Man pour sa ressemblance avec le personnage du jeu vidéo.

Cette image se compose de 66h de pose a la fra400 et 2600mm sous le ciel ariègeois !

Bon ciel a tous !

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
