Hi all,
Was setup & had missed my short 2.5hr window (my clear spot between trees) for the northern targets so went looking close to zenith and stumbled onto Gum 12, part of a well known supernova remnant.. which is a new target for me.
6 hours of exposure.. again I could do with more data but thought id post what i have for now.. I'll also be adding to this the next clear night. Enjoyed processing it, seeing the Ha & Oiii channels having no similarity at all between them, combining & kaboom! Can almost see the explosive power from it's origins.
Part 1.. 6 hrs, attached.
Part 2.. watch this space.
If anyone wants to have a crack, i had to use coordinates as the asiair doesn't know the Gum Catalog.
