The Veil Nebula - De Sluiernevel / Eastern Veil (C33)

[EN] Finally clear skies yesterday (just for 1 night and with a very bright moon). So I did another test of the ASI533MC Pro with the Optolong L-Extreme filter. The test object: The Veil nebula ... or more precisely a part of the Eastern Veil (C33). The Veil Nebula is a cloud of heated and ionized gas and dust in the constellation Cygnus. It is a supernova remnant caused by the explosion of a massive star (20x the sun) 10 to 20 thousand years ago. I find it quite an impressive object and am looking forward for the next clear skies to image other parts of this Veil Nebula.

[NL] Gisteren konden we eindelijk genieten van een heldere hemel (slechts voor 1 nacht en met een enorm heldere maan). Ideaal voor een nieuwe test van de ASI533MC Pro met de Optolong L-Extreme-filter. Het testobject: de Sluiernevel ... of beter gezegd een deel van de Oostelijke Sluier (C33). De Sluiernevel is een wolk van verhit en geïoniseerd gas en stof in het sterrenbeeld Zwaan. Het is het overblijfsel van een supernova die 10 tot 20 duizend jaar geleden werd veroorzaakt door de explosie van een massieve ster (20x de zon). Ik vind het een behoorlijk indrukwekkend object en kijk uit naar de volgende heldere hemel om andere delen van deze Sluiernevel in beeld te brengen.

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.
