Description

The core of Gum 14 in the constellation Vela. A large, detailed, H-alpha emission nebula (about 2 degrees wide) that also features a small blue reflection nebula (NGC2626) that adds some much needed blue tones to an otherwise very red nebula. I didn't spend as much time on data acquisition on this target as I normally would as I only acquired one night each for LRGB and H-alpha data acquisition but nonetheless I'm pleased with the result.
Represented in HaLRGB.
