Description

Heart Nebula taken from Bortle 8 sky, it was a challenge to get enough data through this sky and most of the nights were cloudy but i struggled to achieve more than 48 hours of good data to process.
Its emission nebula located in the Perseus arm of Cassiopeia, away from earth by 7500 light years. The shape of the nebula is so obvious like shape of heart that's how it gets its name
The knot in the lower part is separately known  as NGC 896
