Flaming Star

Flaming Star

This image was taken with my permanent setup of of an AP155, asi533mm, asiair pro, and assorted focusers/guiders/filters all in a newly installed POD. This is part of the Flaming Star nebula or ic405. The data is narrowband using Baader filters. The Red and Blue channels though are blends of hydrogen alpha and Silicon for the red,
while the Blue is a mixture of Oxygen and hydrogen alpha.
The Green is just oxygen. I really like the variation between the sections with the shock waves and then the smoother nebulous regions.
