M57 Ring Nebula (Dizzle 2x)

For the present image of M57, the Dizzle 2x stacking technique has been used, this technique was developed by A. Fruchter and R. Hook, this technique is very useful to increase the resolution and details in the image, in this particular case the idea was to enlarge a very small part of the original frame, and thus get a close-up of M57 and be able to appreciate the details inside. M57 is a small planetary nebula, it is located in the constellation of Lira, M57 is illuminated by the star located in its center, it is a star that has consumed all the hydrogen in its core which has caused the core to contract and that its outer layers of gas expand and cool, you could say that, we are looking at a beautiful shroud of what was once a star more massive than the sun, the red outer part is the first layers of gas that it expelled the star, in order to capture its light, a Hydrogen Alpha filter has been used.

It has been acquired from the remote observatory Deep Sky West in Rowe New Mexico, where my dear friends and fellow fans Jim Y Linda Powell has hosted and pilot a great team.
Thank you very much, dear friends.

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
