Description

This RGBHOS image shows in some detail the very northern-most portion of the Great Carina Nebula.  Visible nebulas include the large semi-circular filaments surrounding the active star Wolf-Rayet 23 (WR23) on the far left. Just below the center of the image is the Gabriela Mistral Nebula consisting of an emission nebula of glowing gas (IC 2599) surrounding the small open cluster of stars (NGC 3324) inside it. Above the image center and to the right is the larger, intense star cluster NGC 3293.

This is an 28.5h RGBHOS image with RGB stars with the data collected by DeepSkyWest in Rio Hurtado, Chile, in January to March 2022.
