Description

I share my personal elaboration of the ShaRA_6 project, which was used to generate the final and offical image of ShaRA_6.
The target is NGC 1999, also known as the Keyhole nebula, located immediately under the famous M42.
In my opinion this is one of the most beautiful targets presented by ShaRA and I was honored to have processed high quality data like this.
