Veil Nebula
The Magnificent Veil Nebula!
The remains of a star that exploded about 10000 years ago. This epic cosmic explosion would have rivaled the moon to the then humans.
What would they have thought? How would they have rationalized this freak occurrence in the heavens? Would they have imagined a giant war of the gods? Maybe not, to them, a war did not mean explosions yet. Maybe it was the birth of a new god or the death of an old one or the wrath of an angry one or the blessing of a generous one or maybe, just maybe, that the death star finally blew up Alderaan.
We know what it is now. Science sure has it's limitations but has given us irrefutable knowledge about certain things. It's disheartening when we start questioning the drop in the ocean that we do know about and in the process drag a section of humanity decades, if not centuries, back in time.
Equipment:
Camera - Olympus OM-D E-M10 Mark II
Lens - Rokinon 135mm F2
Mount - Skywatcher Star Adventurer
