Description

This is Ha, Oii, and RGB data from Telescope Live at the El Sauce hosting facility at 1500m elevation in Río Hurtado, Coquimbo Region, Chile. Ha (36 x 5 min) was blended in as lighten inte the red channel and Oiii (36 x 5 min) was blended in as lighten to the blue and green channels. RGB data is 6 x 5 min for each channel.

Filters (50mm square): Astrodon LRGB 2GEN, Ha (3nm), SII (3nm), OIII (3nm)

This super nova remnant that can be seen from the southern hemisphere is humongous, apparently at least 5° in diameter. After processing it, I suddenly realized I was looking at the Pencil Nebula (NGC2736) down to the left.
