Eye of Sauron Nebula ... and a news update!

[Public Domain] 25 Aug 2015 Dylan O'Donnell CATEGORY : Astrophotography 8,207 others viewed this post.

Here is my first crack at the “Eye of Sauron” nebula, imaged from Astrofest QLD 2015 where I pitched a tent and my telescope for the first time away from home. It was a great experience being around lots of other enthusiastic space nuts like myself and meeting some online and society friends there. This is a “planetary nebula” so described only for it’s circular shape, the exploding shell of a past supernova – the ultimate death of a star, much like our own sun will endure eventually.

I hope to return to this target with more magnification but this is a good start I think! 9 x 10m exposures using the hyperstar lens and Celestron 9.25″ Edge HD SCT / QHY12 OSC CCD camera cooled to -15c.
