Description

Data Acquisition from 2019-08-19 until 2019-11-24.

DSO Color Mapping: SN-HO-OH

Original Image (Pix) Scale: 0.72

NB: This scope is located at Sierra Remote Observatory. I personally configured and installed this scope and make regular trips to SRO to perform maintenance and upgrades. When not on site, I operate the scope nightly from home using a remote desktop application.

This is one of the most often imaged targets on Astrobin, so I will spare you all of the usual info on the Trunk (1396A) and the greater nebula (IC 1396). I just finished processing this data from Late 2019, and hope you like the result.
