      IC 405 In SHO

      Another image from data I processed from Telescope Live from an observatory in Spain. This is IC 405, The Flaming Star Nebula in SHO. The data was obtained using a Takahashi FSQ-106N telescope, ASI2600MM Pro camera and Optolong SII, HA, and OIII filters. This is 30 hours of integration that I processed in Pixinsight and Photoshop. The Flaming Star Nebula is lit by the nearby AE Aurigae in the constellation Auriga. This glowing emission and reflection nebula lies approximately 1,500 light-years from Earth.
