Description

SNR G119.5+10.2 aka CTA 1 is a very faint nebula in northern Cepheus. In fact it was discorvered as a radio source and published in 1960. CTA 1 stands for “CT”, the abbreviation for “Caltech” and the letter “A” denotes the first list of radio sources published by this observatory as this object was previously not catalogued.
In fact this is my second attempt to this area. First was in July 2021 , but with different setup https://www.astrobin.com/a2suiq/D/?nc=&nce=
