Take hold of the flame
SHO-image of the Flame Nebula (NGC 2024), acquired via 3 one click observation requests with the Planewave CDK24 telescope and FLI PL9000 camera in El Sauce Observatory, Chile (CHI-1).
The Flame Nebula is an emission nebula in the constellation Orion, about 900 to 1,500 light-years away. The blue subgiant star Alnitak (in fact it is a triple star system, here on the right of the Flame) energizes the hydrogen gas of the Flame Nebula.
Total exposure 90 minutes
SHO 6:6:6 in sub-exposures of 300s
