Description

Seeing was good, despite the full moon. Not wanting to let a clear night go to waste, I opted to capture some Ha data on one of my favorite targets, the Heart Nebula. While it will be cloudy for the next few days, I should have a complete run of images for a Hubble Palette version next week. I hope to gather over 20 hours of data for this project.
