Space's flying Eagle and its swimming Swan - M16 and M17 by Addy

Two known nearby Deep Sky Objects (DSOs). "Eagle" representing the dark region of M16 near the center. Another nickname for the "Swan", "Omega", was given due to the early discovery sketches resembling the last alphabet of the Greek letter.

This is a SHO (Hubble Palette combination). The red uses the Ionized Sulfur (SII) filter, the green uses the Hydrogen Alpha (Ha) filter, and the blue uses the Doubly Ionized Oxygen (OIII) filter. Stack of 13 x 600 seconds for SII and OIII, and 12 x 600 seconds for Ha. Total integration of 6 hours and 20 minutes.
