Description

Thor's Helmet Nebula.  Shot through end of February during full moon with Dualband L-extreme as a Luminance layer, and early March in RGB, 2024.

3hr 48min HaOiii
49min Blue
57min Green
55min Red

Modified mirror newtonian, 980mm focal length at F/4.6

I feel this needs more time in RGB, but I am running out of my ideal time frame to get more good data on this project.  I'll revisit it next year to add onto it.
I did my best to minimize the noise as much as possible without ruining some detail aspects, but the full moon did it's damage.
