Description

LBN 777 aka the "Baby Eagle" - a super cool little dark nebula in the vast Taurus Molecular Cloud. I had been eyeing this target for a while but until now, could never put in the integration time it demands.

One of my favorite parts of this image is the bow shock surrounding the head of the eagle. There are also a ton of small background galaxies in this region. 

26 hours total integration time taken over 5 nights in October and early November 2022. 

All acquisition in NINA, all processing in PixInsight.
