Description

This region of the sky has a lot of interesting Ha nebulosity, star clusters and dark nebulas. I ended up acquiring data over 4 nights, with extra emphasis on the Oiii filter  (really dim compared to even Sii). This is probably one of my longest acquisition to date, but I think it paid out for SNR.

I went with the Foraxx palette and replaced the narrowband stars with RGB ones.

Interestingly, it seems I've picked up  a lesser known supernova about 1/3 the way between Sadr and NGC6910.

After some literature survey, this seems to match to SNR (G 78.2+2.1). [[url]https://arxiv.org/pdf/2010.15854.pdf]
