Description

The most challenging target so far. 30.67 hours of data on the Squid and Bat Nebulas, with 23.5 of those hours focused on the Oiii gas of the Squid. It will be fun to add data to this target each year to see improvement. For the astrophotographers, I used the GAME mask in PixInsight to isolate the Squid from the Bat. It gives the Oiii data a soft edge that blends well with the Ha.
