When I was eating up and testing the new telescope, I noticed that the constellation Orion was in view, so I decided the point the scope at the Horsehead Nebula to see what kind of resolution I could get. I was very pleased with the result, so I spent the next few nights collecting 5 hours of Hydrogen-Alpha (Ha) data and 6 hours of RGB to make this image. I’m very pleased to get so much detail with this narrow field of view. For comparison with my other telescope, check out the Horsehead and Flame nebula picture in the Astrophotography gallery.
