Ring Nebula
Taken on 28 May 2017 with ZWO ASI224 MC Camera, connected to Celestron NexStar 6 SE Telescope. Video was captured in SharpCap, processed in Registax 6 and touched-up in PhotoShop.
It is a planetary nebula found in northern constellation of Lyra. Such objects are formed when a shell of ionised gas is expelled into the surrounding interstellar medium by a red giant star, which was passing through the last stage in its evolution before becoming a white dwarf.
It has a distance of 2,300 light-years from Earth.
