PHOTO OF THE MONTH

The Spaghetti Nebula

Michael P Caligiuri, Anza Borrego Desert, California, 25-26 November 2022

Michael says: “Sh2-240 is a supernova remnant located 3,000 lightyears away. It's believed to be the remnant of a star that exploded 40,000 years ago. What sets this image apart from my prior attempts is that I was able to acquire sufficient OIII (oxygen). While dim, there is ONI throughout the filaments, a feature often missed in HaRGB images.”

ZWO ASI294 camera, Samyang 135mm f/1.8 lens at f/4, Astro-Physics AP1100
