The Eastern Veil Nebula (NGC 6992)
Price range: $10.00 through $18.00
Description
One of the most beautiful supernova remnants in the sky, the Eastern Veil is the brightest part of the huge Cygnus Loop — the expanding shell of a star that exploded 10 000–20 000 years ago. At roughly 2 400 light-years away, its delicate, glowing filaments stretch across three degrees of sky (six full moons wide) and light up in vivid teal (oxygen) and red (hydrogen).
This 20 h 26 min narrowband image was captured with the SVBony SV550 122 mm triplet APO and monochrome ToupTek 26000 KMA camera using 5 nm Ha and OIII filters, plus RGB for natural-looking stars. The classic Hubble-palette colors reveal braided textures and faint outer wisps that only long integration from a dark site can show.
