Description

This is IC1805 (Heart) and NGC 896 (Fish) nebulas.   There are numerous other objects in here such as Melotte 15 (the central cluster which irradiates all of the gas).   This object is somewhat of a test, as it is very under-sampled.   I shot this with the Stowaway and focal reducer and 60mp camera binned 2x2.      So <500mm focal length with pixels that are about 7.5um square.    It can't be blown up super big as the stars go square.   But the 2nd part of the experiement is to drizzle the image and re-inflate it.   I know I can't really get detail where I didn't capture it, but my stars do go round in large zooms.  I will post the drizzeled version soon.    In general, noise is very low and the signal I get at 20 minutes is incredibly low  (< 60 mean count over bias at 100 gain) but still get a good result (at least I think it's acceptable).
