Description

Abell 85, often called the Medulla Nebula,  is a very large and faint super nova remnant that is racing west right now near the borders of Cassiopeia and Cepheus. The nebula is barely visible in RGB but brightens considerably in Ha. The image here total a little over 14 hours exposure with about 2 hours of that through RGB filters.  Thanks so much for looking!
