Description

This has been on my backlog for quite some time. The Flaming star nebula was imaged in December 2023. It was one of the first targets I used with the AGO. I think this emission / reflection nebula deserves a closer look at a higher focal length given its intricate and delicate features that benefits from being seen more closely. It is 1500 light years away from Earth and spans 5 light years.
