Description

This is an HOO view of this interesting field, located in Ara.  Located at a distance of 4,000 light years, the nebula is partially illuminated by the cluster NGC 6193.  5 hours of integration, 10 * 15 minutes each with H2 and O3 filters.    This was a collaboration between myself (2 hours), and a fellow member (3 hours).   We had some S2 data also, but I did not like the results for this version as much as for the HOO version.   My data captured May 13 through May 17.   Note the interesting blue cloud around the NGC 6164 open cluster.  Regards, Tom Schmidtkunz
