Heart of the Heart Nebula

Jan 20, 2022

Image Description and Details :         Our first picture with our remote imaging setup in south Portugal (Alelentejo Remote Observatory managed by the ARO TEAM). Our team named AstroDarkTeam is a team of two passionate french amateur astronomers : Stephane Rolland and Pascal Gouraud We  have installed our setup in south Portugal (EQ8-R + TOA130) on  mid-october 2021 and we have been imaging since end of October 2021. Our first target is IC1805 an emission nebula and star cluster Melotte 15. Clouds  in this area are sculpted by stellar winds and radiation from massive  hot stars in the nebula cluster, Melotte 15 (about 1.5 million  years young). This 15 light-years wide field view includes emission from ionized hydrogen, sulfur, and oxygen atoms. The Heart Nebula. IC 1805 is located about 7,500 light years away toward the constellation Cassiopeia. Regarding imaging sessions,  We have got some issues with thermal amplitude and humidity. Some improvements still to be done regarding subframe exposure (moving to 15 or 20 minutes) and better subframe selection. Regarding  processing, we have been unable to integrate LRVB shots to improve star  colors, so still to be improved for future pictures. For a first run, we are quite happy with this result.

The Pillars of Creation

This region of active current star formation is about 6,500 light-years distant inside the Eagle Nebula. These columns are composed of interstellar hydrogen gas and dust, which act as incubators for new stars. The longest of the 'Pillars' is seven light years long, and because of their massive density, interior gasses contract gravitationally to form stars.
