Description

This is an image I processed using original narrowband data from Telescope Live. In my processing workflow, I used the Hubble Palette for the narrowband color mapping.

This nebula is known as The Statue of Liberty Nebula because of its uncanny resemblance to the famous landmark. This is an emission nebula estimated to be 9,000 light years from Earth and is found in the southern constellation Carina.

Total Exposure: 8 hrs
