Vela Supernova Remnant

Located in the Vela constellation, in the southern hemisphere, the Vela Supernova Remnant is one of the mos unique deep sky objects in the observable universe. It has an almost bicolored appearance due to the finely separated layers of ionized hydrogen (Hα) and ionized oxygen (O3), that emmits red and cyan color, respectively. These expanding veils and filaments of gas and dust are the remnants of a supernova explosion, and are likely immersed in an older and larger supernova remnant: the Gum Nebula.

The Vela Supernova Remnant is certainly one of the many astronomic treasures of the southern hemisphere and attracts attention due to its large apparent size and unique appearance. However, it is a faint and challenging target to be photographed. I hope you enjoyed the picture as much as I did. As always, constructive criticism, comments and suggestions are more than welcome in the comments section.

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
