Description

Sh 2-132 is a very faint emission nebula in the constellation Cepheus, about 10000 light years distant and about 40 arc minutes in angular size, a bit small for my camera lens astrophotography but it frames up nicely in the long focal length telescope at SRO.  This is my first attempt at the Hubble palette using data from the CDK14 at Sierra Remote Observatory, thanks to Linda Thomas Fowler and Chris Kagy for setting up the acquistion and framing.  And I have to acknowledge Tim Triche for his generosity in sharing his equipment and his mechanical and engineering skills at fine tuning the engine on this amazing instrument.
