Description: Reprocessed with a cleaner Mosaic Template.

Pixinsight went a little crazy with local distortions when making the first Mosaic reference template. This version is much cleaner. It was the bad reference that caused the star distortions in the first version.

I kept this as a 32 bit floating point image for the first pass of de-noising and some stretching. This gave much better dynamic range once I did convert to 16 bit. I was able to preserve some of that bright rose and blue blush that the NAN has along the Appalachian Mountain region.
