Description

The Cygnus Wall of the North America Nebula - NGC7000 The North America Nebula covers a region more than ten times the area of the full moon, but its surface brightness is low, so normally it cannot be seen with the unaided eye. Binoculars and telescopes with large fields of view (approximately 3°) will show it as a foggy patch of light under sufficiently dark skies. However, using a UHC filter, which filters out some unwanted wavelengths of light, it can be seen without magnification under dark skies. Its shape and reddish color (from the hydrogen Hα emission line) show up only in photographs of the area. Telescope: SVBONY ED 80mm/560mm F7 Doublet Refractor + 2-Inch 0.8x Focal Reducer / Flattener● Camera: SVBONY 405CC Cooled Color Camera (IMX294)● Mount: EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC IEXOS-100● Guidescope: SVBONY 120● Guide camera: SVBONY 305 Pro● Filter: SV220 Telescope Filter 7nm Dual-Band Nebula 2 inches● SV226 Filter Drawer● Software: N.I.N.A, PHD2, Stellarium, DSS, Siril, Photoshop● Exposure: 2h
