Description

With the 1200mm FL achromat I had to target this object, always wanted to, but with the RASA or the Explore Scientific it would have been just too small. I looked ahead on Astrobin and saw that the images in HOO look very nice and that an S channel does not give much more, hence I decided to go along with it. Another example how Astrobin colleagues help 😊!

M 76 is also known as NGC 650/651, the Barbell Nebula, or the Cork Nebula, at a distance of app. 2500 LJ.
