Description

NGC7000 dense pillar of gas and dust (located at RA=21h00m30s Dec=+43°52' about) in the North America nebula. These enormous columns of gas are a common feature in many nebulae and the material inside them is often dense enough to collapse to form stars. This columns of gas is 7 light years long, and they'dd fit 10 billion billion billion Earth inside it.

Drizzle data integration by PixInSight of 2 main lights group of frame: WO Zenithstar 61/EOS550d CLS filter at ISO400 600sec, and WO Redcat51/ASI183MC-Pro at Gain180 300sec.
