Description

What started out as a project to capture the Tadpoles, IC410, turned into a mosaic of the surrounding area in the Auriga constellation. This mosaic captures IC405 (Flaming Star Nebula), IC410 (Tadpoles Nebula), IC417 (The Spider and the Fly) and near by open star clusters.

The full version is 181.8 megapixels (14207 x 12800), yet the image presented here is only 3500 x 3300 pixels. Total imaging time is 65.5 hours (21.24 Ha, 17.5 O3, 20.75 O3), with the mosaic made up of 42 panels.

Data was taken from December 11 2020 - January 10 2021.

This version is presented in the Hubble Palette (SHO).
