About this image

The H-alpha channel was acquired on 28/9/2021 and swiftly followed by a run of bad weather (no change there). I parked the project and revisited it again on the 6th and 8th October 2022 this time acquiring the Oiii and Sii data.

Ha - 78 x 300s

Oiii - 66 x 300s

Sii - 62 x 300s

Total integration time 17 hours.
