About this image

The data for this image was captured across six different nights and originally commenced on 22 September and ended on 29th October, mostly due to poor weather.

I would have liked to have captured some more Sii but I also want to move on to other targets so I have called a halt to this project for now.

Data;

Ha 113 x 300s

Oiii 52 x 300s; 31 x 600s

Sii 51 x 300s

Camera Gain 139 with an Offset 30.
