You're looking at an incredible image of the star forming region Cepheus A. It contains a massive protostar with 16 times the mass of the Sun, part of a recent survey.

Cone nebula | Christmas tree (NGC2264) - This is still a work in progress. I’ve been imaging this nebula for about three weeks, fitting it in between unstable weather and other projects running in parallel.
This is the emission signal mostly due to ionized hydrogen (Hɑ) >>>

These nights I’m running four projects in parallel that require many hours of acquisition, so I’m piling up gigabytes of data, but for now I haven’t started processing any of it yet. So, to kill time, I’m reprocessing some images from last summer, like the Trifid Nebula (M20). 🔭

M1: The Crab Nebula apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap25122...
This is the mess that is left when a star explodes. The Crab Nebula, the result of a supernova seen in 1054 AD, is filled with mysterious filaments

Orion nebula, M42, last night. Fairly clear sky before the next storm and no moon. Never saw this by eye. Wow
