More of the Veil Nebula

Hi to all

I got some data for NGC 6992, the other bright bit of the Veil nebula, over the last few days. Must admit I didn't think it turned out as well as NGC 6960 and was more difficult to process but, for what they are worth, here are both images.

Cheers

Steve

I love it. For some reason the Veil always makes me think of old science fiction, like Star Trek or late 70 Battlestar Galactica. No idea why, but I always get a nostalgic feel everytime I see a veil shot. The colour in this is gorgeous.

Thanks very much Peter. It's always been one of my favourites too perhaps because one of the first astronomical pictures I ever saw in a kid's encyclopedia was the picture of the Veil taken with the 60" telescope at Mt Wilson. It's also very colour rich so looks very good in science fiction movies.
