Messier 1 - The Crab Nebula (RGB)
This image shows Messier 1, the Crab Nebula. This nebula is a supernova remnant dating back to 1054 where Chinese astronomers noticed a guest star that was visible in the sky for almost a month - it was actually a supernova!
Messier 1 can be seen in the constellation of Taurus during the winter months. It's a fairly small target, so a larger telescope is needed to see and capture it well.
This image was captured from my garden with a ZWO 533MM camera, Skywatcher 200P / 8" newtonian on an EQ6R Pro. Antlia Pro Ha 3nm and Ultra 2.8nm filters were used, also Antlia RGB V-Pro filters were used for RGB.
