Panorama of a whole bunch of Sharpless nebulae and unnamed ones in Auriga

[gorann]

Friday night was clear and moonless so I could let my dual-RASA8 rig (with ASI2600MC and NBZ filter) add a second panel to my hunt for objects in the Sharpless catalogue in Auriga. Here is my previous post:

With this second panel I made a panoramic view that now includes Sharpless 232, 233, 234, 235, and 237. The big open star cluster is M38. I wonder why Lynds and Sharpless left out some of the more striking nebulosity in this area, including the filametous nebulosity just above the Spider nebula (Sh2-234) and the big blob at the bottom of the image.

I will add a plate solved image from Astrobin as soon as the system collaborates (which it is not doing right now).

Now totally nearly 28 hours of data.

Cheers, Göran
