Description

SH2-240 is a supernova remnant in Taurus. This turned out to be one of the most difficult objects to process for me. Although I aquired over 23 hours of data using the L-xtreme filter, it wasn't enough, probably because of my Bortle 7-8 skies. I know it is noisy and could use twice the amount of data. But I want to move on to other targets. Mainly galaxies using one of my other scopes. So for now I will have to settle with what I have and maybe capture this target another time from my Bortle 4 site. Clear skies! Mike
