Description

The data is acquired by @blackrig and is a part of the Moana Project. Many thanks to blackrig for making the data available. It is absolutely beautiful! I especially like the hexagonal diffraction spikes.

The original data has a total integration of 19 hours and 58 minutes in SHORGB. I tested SHO, HSO, HOS and HOO, and found HOO with RGB stars gives the best result. So I did not use the 5h20m of SII data. I deliberately left the stars a little larger as I like the diffraction spikes and wanted to show them more prominently. 

The data was downloaded from here: https://erellaz.com/moana/open-datasets/
