NGC2022

Last night under full moon I made this Photo. Normally I could capture with a gain of 200 but now I had to decrease the gain to 25! It was also first light, because after a period of 14 years I cleaned the mirror and I made a mask to blend the clips (I also made them 5 mm shorter!) of the mirror to prevent the big black spiders visible on some of my photos. I also see now that the three pastics screws which hold the mirror in place has to loosen a bit and the secondary mirror is not good in place.

This “tiny “ object is at a distance estimated of 8000 light years. The innershell is 20 seconds of arc and 0,8 light years in diameter. The outer shell is 80 seconds of arc and 1,1 light years in diameter. The central star is Magnitude 15.

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
