Description

The familiar Veil Nebula, the eastern side of this famous super nova remnant in Cygnus. Contains NGC6962, NGC6995, and IC1345.
This is an(12ea) (600sec)RGB, (6)(1200sec)Halpha image taken using a 6" F/6.45 APO Melior design from the dark skies of Kennedy Meadows California.

Resolution here is "real" and NOT an artifact from processing or AI. I have compared it to an image from the 100" Issac Newton telescope and the 6" does very well.
