Description

NGC 6992 - East Veil Nebula in Cygnus, about 2,400 light years away. Part of a supernova remnant. The left side is also known as the Bat Nebula, (perfect for Halloween!)

For this image I drizzled the colour data x2 to match the higher resolution of the mono camera and combined it as HaRGB. The H-alpha was also used as a luminance layer.
