NGC 896 SHO Draft 2
NGC 896 SHO
The second draft IMHO Improves in the processing in the first draft.
Comments and critique always welcome.
This false color image of NCG 896, in the Heart Nebula, is sometimes called the Fish Head nebula. It is some 7500 light years from earth in the Cassiopeia constellation. The data was collected over five nights and combined in the SHO pallet. This assigns the Sii wavelength, a deep red, to the red channel, The Ha wavelength, a bright red, to the green channel, and the Oiii wavelength, a blue-green, to the blue channel.
The Fish Head Nebula contains a star forming region.
60x420s SII
42x300s Ha
83x300s Oiii
17 hours, 24 minutes total integration.
Data Collected Oct 18 -22, 2019 from Ridgecrest CA.
Telescope: Orion 8" f/3.9 Newtonian.
Mount Orion Atlas Pro Az/Eq-G
Guide Camera ZWO ASI120MC-S
