Description

M42 in NIR
Actually I thought I was finished with M42 and the AZ1500 for this year but I still had an unused data set of 10x30 sec. in R I and Z band of the Sloan set.
It is pretty astonishing how much signal the IMX sensors still pick up in Z band as the center wavelenght is at 905nm.
It is quite a different view with these filters so I thought it is worth processing and posting.
Hope you find it interresting.
Wolfgang
