The Pencil Nebula and the Vela SNR
A widefield shot composed to show the Pencil Nebula - the bright blue streak at upper left - in context, with the Vela supernova remnant filling the rest of the frame. The Pencil nebula is part of the Vela SNR.
This image is an integration of nearly 8 hours of data captured on an ASI2600MC Pro camera with a William Optics Redcat51 telescope and an Optolong L-eXtreme filter. All post-processing was carried out in PixInsight.
