Description

Sh2-132 or Lion nebula
Is an emission nebula on the border of Cepheus and Lacerta at 10k LY from us.
I took this picture for the shape of the nebula and there are some stars responsible for the ionization of its gases.
Two of them are Wolf-Rayet stars (WR 153ab/HD 211853) and are very hot and massive.

SQM 21.63 average
My first attempt with GHS, I will continue using it.
BIN 2x2
no guiding
