Abell 84 from my own „Sterntaucher“ observatory

In 2017 I took some images from the planetary nebula Abell 84, located in the constellation Cassiopeia. For Hα and [OIII] I used my 10” Newtonian telescope, while I took the RGB images with the small Apo.

Data calibration and registration and the final processing was done with PixInsight. The RGB Data was upscaled to the narrowband data. The result was as follows:

The images were taken with the following equipment:

• Location: Krefeld, Germany
• Telescope: 10″ Newton ohne Namen – TSQ-65ED Apo
• Focal length [mm]: 1000 – 420
• Focal ratio: 3.9 – 6.5
• Mount: Skywatcher EQ8
• Camera: Moravian G2 8300 FW – QSI 583WS
• Filter: Hα:[OIII] – R:G:B
• Exposure time [min]: 310:280 – 240:180:80
• Resolution: 1.11″/px – 2.95″/px
