Description

In late March I stumbled on these faint blue and red filaments by accident when I imaged this area using the NBZ dual band Ha+Oiii filter. After some searching, and with the help from friends, I realized that this was the first visual light image of the SNR G150.3+4.5 described by radio astronomers in 2014. (https://www.aanda.org/articles/aa/abs/2014/07/aa24128-14/aa24128-14.html). I have now combined about 18 hours of HaOiii data with 4 hours of RGB data (same set-up but without filter).

I get the feeling that the dark nebulosity and other dust are obscuring most of the SNR and that we just get a small glimpse of it through a hole in the dust clouds.

Description: Made a lower resolution gif showing how the SNR is invisible until the Ha+Oiii data was added. Wait 5 s for the image to flip.
