Description

The Crab Nebula (M1). 1074 x 20s for just about 6 hours integration.  With the moon 99% illuminated, I turned to the Optolong L-Enhance dual-narrowband filter to capture this data on supernova remnant M1, which I've wanted to see since I was a 10-year old kid with an Astroscan 2001.   Aside from forgetting to plug the thumb drive into the ASIAir (which cost me an hour or so of data), this project came together quickly and seamlessly.

(Captured: C6, Alt-Az, Hyperstar, ASI183MC Pro, Optolong L-Enhance filter. Processed: Photoshop, Star Xterminator, Gradient Xterminator, and Topaz DeNoise AI.)
