Description

I used the ForaxX method of combing 3 hours of images in Ha, Sii and Oiii. This is NGC 2237. The Rosette Nebula is an H II region located near one end of a giant molecular cloud in the Monoceros region of the Milky Way Galaxy. The open cluster NGC 2244 is closely associated with the nebulosity, the stars of the cluster having been formed from the nebula's matter.
