Theta Muscae Supernova Remnant (SNR) G304.4-3.1

Theta Muscae Supernova Remnant (SNR) G304.4-3.1

This recently discovered part of the sky caught my attention on Astrobin. This is my take on this wonderful nebula and region. It represents a few firsts for me. First time Mosaic (2 panel), and first time using CAA rotator from ZWO. Apart from clouds and rain and at the end some guiding issues, I managed to get 9 + hours for each panel. To achieve this FOV I used my Askar V with a 60mm aperture and reducer at 270mm F4.5


Total integration: 9h 20m

Integration per filter:
- Hα: 3h 10m
- OIII: 6h 10m

Equipment:
- Telescope: Askar V 60mm / 80mm Triplet Modular Refractor
- Camera: ZWO ASI533MM Pro
- Mount: ZWO AM3
- Filters: Antlia 3nm Narrowband H-alpha 1.25", Antlia 3nm Narrowband Oxygen III 1.25"
- Software: Adobe Photoshop, Pleiades Astrophoto PixInsight
