Description

The central emission nebula is called LBN 251. This region of star formation is at a distance of approx. 4900 light years. Lots going on in this region. I like all the wild shapes these nebula take.

This is my first image made only with data from the Epsilon: It is now well-collimated and the mirror seems as superb as I had hoped for.
