Ngc 346

Here's another object in the SMC that should probably get more attention than it usually does. NGC 346 is the brightest star formation region in the SMC and, as such, is equivalent to the Tarantula nebula in the LMC although it looks quite different. I had to use some data from an older image to fill this one in. Perhaps I'll get some more data when the moon goes away.

Cheers

Steve
