NGC 1333: a reflection nebula in Perseus

NGC 1333 is a reflection nebula embedded in the gas and dust of the Perseus molecular cloud, 1000 light years away in our Milky Way galaxy.

This image is an RGB combination of over 9 hours of data captured in each of the Red, Green and Blue channels on a QHY163M camera using Optolong filters. The telescope was a WO FLT110 and the mount was a Skywatcher AZ-EQ6.

Sequence Generator Pro and PHD2 managed the imaging and all post-processing was carried out in PixInsight.

Taken from Prachinburi, Thailand
