EtaCarinaeNebula-5-Telescope Live
Carina Nebula, 15 hours and 20 minutes of integration in SHO with Planewave CDK24 610/3962 f 6/5 telescope, QHY 600M Pro camera, are 171 shots of which in Ha 17x600 seconds-32x300 seconds and 15x120 seconds, in OIII 9x600 seconds, 30x300 seconds and 15x120 seconds, in SII 8x600 seconds, 30x300 seconds and 15x120 seconds, processing with Pixinsight and Photoshop. All data and shots were captured with Telescope Live. The Carina Nebula (also known as the Eta Carinae Nebula or by the catalog designations NGC 3372 and C 92) is an emission nebula located in the heart of the southern Milky Way, in the constellation Carina. It is perfectly visible even to the naked eye, although its observation is limited to the regions of the Earth's southern hemisphere and the northern tropics; it was first catalogued by Nicolas Louis de Lacaille in 1751, during his stay in Cape Town.
It is one of the largest known H II regions within our Galaxy: the nebula has real dimensions that reach 260 light years and surrounds several open clusters, as well as one of the most massive stars known, the variable η Carinae. Some star formation phenomena are active within it, although to a lesser extent than in other similar nebulae: this would be an indicator of the high degree of evolution of this nebula. Its distance is estimated at 7500 light-years from us.
As evidence that star formation in the astronomically recent past has been quite intense, there are a large number of open clusters and stellar associations, all composed of very hot, blue young stars, which excite the gas of the nebula and perturb it with their strong stellar wind. Within the nebula there are also well-known substructures, such as the Homunculus Nebula, which surrounds the star η Carinae and the Keyhole Nebula, whose name was assigned to it by John Herschel in the first half of the nineteenth century.
