Oskar ContrerasTried for the #WesternVeilNebula this morning; no success. Nice image of the #star #52Cygni though. #unistellar #odysseypro #space #astronomy #amateur
Attempted to image the #WesternVeilNebula but the telescope was not capturing much. Could be there are thin high clouds in the sky this morning. . You can see the #star #52Cygni. #unistellar #odysseypro #space #astronomy #amateur
Last observation of the morning. Trying to get the #WesternVeilNebula and it got to bright. You can see traces of it on the left and right of the star in the center of the image, #52Cygni. #nebula #star #unistellar #odysseypro #space #astronomy #amateur
Frank AdlerThe Veil Nebula Complex
===================
The Veil Nebula is a large supernova remnant in the constellation Cygnus. The source supernova exploded between 10.000 and 20.000 years ago, and the remnants have since expanded to cover an area roughly 3 degrees in diameter (about 6 times the diameter, and 36 times the area, of the full Moon). The distance to the nebula is not precisely known, with estimates ranging from 1,400 to 2,600 light-years.
Scope: Askar 103APO
Lens: Askar 0.6x Reducer
Camera: Canon EOS 6Da
Filter: Antlia TriBand RGB Ultra
Mount: Skywatcher AZ-EQ5 GT
Guiding: Svbony SV165 Guide Scope with ZWO ASI 224MC
Controller: ZWO ASIAir Pro
Integration time: 4hrs 35min

Frank AdlerMein bisher aufwändigstes Projekt: Der Schleier- oder Cirrusnebel.
Dieses riesige Gebilde aus ionisiertem Gas entstand vor 10.000 bis 20.000 Jahren bei der Supernova eines Sterns von etwa 20-facher Masse unserer Sonne.
Das Bild wurde als Mosaik aus zwei Paneelen von je über 5h Belichtungszeit aufgenommen.

The Veil Nebula
============
This is the veil nebula, a giant remnant of a star, about 20 times our sun, going supernova between 10.000 and 20.000 years ago.
I'm really proud on this one as it's my biggest project so far. The image is captured as a two-panel mosaic, each combining over 5 hrs of exposure time.
This again was captured through a try-band filter, to enhance details using narrowband data. H-alpha areas are mapped to the red channel while H-beta and O-III are mixed into the blue one.
Scope: William Optics ZenithStar 80 ED II
Lens: Skywatcher 0.85x Flattener/Reducer
Camera: Canon EOS 60Da
Filter: Altair Tri-Band
Mount: Skywatcher AZ-EQ5-GT
Guiding: Svbony SV165 with ZWO ASI224MC
Controller: Raspberry Pi 4b with StellarMate OS
Integration of over 10hrs exposure time.
