This kind of beauty does not ask to be understood, only to be contemplated.

Elephant’s Trunk Nebula

The Elephant's Trunk nebula is a concentration of interstellar gas and dust within the much larger ionized gas region IC 1396 located in the constellation Cepheus about 2,400 light years away from Earth.[1] The piece of the nebula shown here is the dark, dense globule IC 1396A; it is commonly called the Elephant's Trunk nebula because of its appearance at visible light wavelengths, where there is a dark patch with a bright, sinuous rim. The bright rim is the surface of the dense cloud that is being illuminated and ionized by a very bright, massive star (HD 206267) that is just to the west of IC 1396A. (In the Figure above, the massive star is just to the left of the edge of the image.) The entire IC 1396 region is ionized by the massive star, except for dense globules that can protect themselves from the star's harsh ultraviolet rays.

Elephant's Trunk Nebula - IC 1396 Back in Juy, I posted this data processed as a SHO image using a combination of the extracted Ha and Oiii channels to simulate an Sii. This data was captured with the Meade 80mm and instead of getting around to posting it, I went out and captured with the Radian Raptor 61. It's been hot, cloudy or both so data wise I am running on fumes! Hope to get some new stuff soon! . 36 x 420s Dark, flat, dark flat, and bias frames 800 ISO - Bortle 8 .

This is a wide-field view of the star-forming region in the constellation of Cepheus. The Elephant Trunk Nebula appears here near the center as a small dark circular cloud-outline surrounding a bright star. It is close by at 2,400 light years distance. This is a rework of 40 x 5 minute images that I captured at Astrofarm in 2021. #elephanttrunknebula #ic1396 #ic1396nebula #cepheusconstellation #starformingregion #interstellargasclouds #interstellargascloud #interstellarspace #interstellargas #interstellargasanddust #astrophotography #astrophotographiefrance #poussieredetoile #poussierdetoiles #deepspacephotography #deepspace #astronomy #astronomie #astronomiefrance (at Astrofarm) https://www.instagram.com/p/CiNVT_OMfBA/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

3nm H-alpha 필터의 첫 사용. 60초 노출 260장 촬영 다음에 가면 LRGB를 촬영해서 색을 입힐 생각이다.
