Description

This is my first image of the Heart Nebula (IC 1805). This emission nebula is located approximately 7500 light years away from us in the constellation Cassiopeia. At the upper right of the image, you will see the Fish Head Nebula (NGC896), which is categorized separately because it was the first portion of the nebula to be discovered. This image was made from over 14 hours of data (213x4min subs) that I captured with my RedCat 51 telescope, ZWO 183 MC pro camera, and Opto-long L-Extreme filter. Processed as an HOO image in SIRIL.
