The Veil Nebula is the aftermath of an enormous star explosion (a Supernova) 5000 to 10,000 years ago. This photo shows the shredded remains of the star. I used the same modified Canon 300D along with a William Optics 80ED Refractor @ F/5.6 (F.L.= 448mm). Exp.time: 49x5min = Over 4hr @ ISO1600. To reduce hot pixels, darks frames were taken at the same temperature and time then subtracted. www.RobsAstroImaging.com
