Description

SNR G82-2+5.3 aka W63, a Supernova Remnant in the western portion of Cygnus. The oxygen signal in this region is the dimmest I've ever attempted. In fact, its so dim that towards the end of the project we had to use our 10" newts just to get decent SNR out of the middle region. I wouldn't only attempt this again in B3 or darker sky.
