Description

This is a small, interesting region within the Flaming Star Nebula. I spent a little extra time on the H-alpha for this project. There are lots of interesting details in that data set.

Acquisition:

Bortle 8/9, Washington DC area
H-alpha = 199 x 300s = 16.6 hours
OIII = 72 x 300s = 6 hours
SII = 76 x 300s = 6.3 hours

Total integration: 28.9 hours
