M42 Orion Nebula & NGC1977 Running Man Nebula
I love the Running Man nebula. It's one of those nebulae were you can actually see how it got it's name.
The Orion nebula is about 1,500 light years away from us.
Image was captured on Friday 10th of November from the Astronomy Centre, Todmorden, UK.
It was a joint effort between myself and observatory members Stuart Keane, Stephen Nield.
We used a TS-Optics 60mm doublet refractor with a Photoline 0.76 flattener/reducer on a Skywatcher HEQ5 pro mount. Camera was a ZWO asi485mc. Guiding was done with a small RVO 32mm mini guidescope and a ZWO asi120mm mini. All controlled with a ZWO asiair plus.
20 light frames of 3 minutes each exposure time stacked together with darks, flats & bias using ASIDeepStack.
Touch ups and noise reduction done using StarTools software.
