M1 - OSC with dual-band

[fireballxl5]

My image of M1 captured over the recent period of clear weather around the time of the bright Moon (16th-20th Jan) using my RC6 scope, OSC camera and a dual-band filter. Approx 5 hours of data.

 

Scope: StellaLyra 6" f/9 RC

Camera: ASI071MCPro

Filter: IDAS NBZ

Mount: RST135E

Guidecam: ASI462MC

Subs: 59x300s

Great detail and colour, I have never thought to use the OSC and NBZ on this target, but M1 would be quite small in my FOV.

Thanks🙂 Yes, my fixed rig has an image scale of 1.7"/pixel, this mobile setup is too much at only 0.7 but great for PNs and galaxies🙂
