Description

Images of the Eta Carina nebula are commonplace. I hope you feel that this one is a bit different. It fits perfectly in the fov of the imaging combo - an RH200 astrograph with an FLI ML 16200 camera. Also it was processed using a full spectrum, SHO, HST palette. By full spectrum, I mean that not all of the dominant Ha green, nor its color secondaries , yellow and cyan, were suppressed in selective coloration. This results in a very colorful image that portrays nicely the intricate interaction of the nebula's ionic emissions. Enjoy.
