Title | Two-Tone Veil | |
Photo Credit: | Paul Mortfield & Stefano Cancelli | |
Object: | Veil Nebula in Cygnus | |
Date: | July 2008 | |
Location: | Sierra Remote Observatories California | |
Telescope: | RCOS 16" f/8.9 | |
Camera: | Apogee U9000 with AstroDon Gen2 Filters | |
Wavelengths: | Hydrogen-Alpha 6nm, OxygenIII 6nm | |
Exposure Time: | 5 hours | |
Notes: | Using only hydrogen and oxygen light to produce the image. Halpha was mapped to red, OIII mapped to blue, and Green is the product of Halpha x OIII. The most fun was blinking the two wavelengths and seeing the differences of the elements resulting from the supernova explosion. |
