Description

Rosette Nebula - SHO

Located 5,200 light years away in the constellation Monoceros is the emission nebula called the Rosette Nebula. 

This is my first actual start to finish - deep sky object project with plenty of data.

I set up my ASI 2600 MC Pro and TS Optics 90mm F6 APO Refractor Telescope in my front yard in North Centra Texas  (Bortle 5). This photo is 126 - 5 minute long exposures, shot over three nights, then stacked together. I then simulated SHO by combining channels in Pixinsight.

Telescope: TS Optics 90mm F6 APO
Mount: Skywatcher AZEQ5
Exposures: 126 - 300"
