IC 1318 (Gamma-Cygni-Nebula)
From time to time I obtain data sets from remote observatories. One of my favorite providers is Deep Sky West with telescopes in Chile and New Mexico. One of the data sets I received, was data from the Gamma-Cygni-Nebula (IC 1318), located in the constellation Cygnus.
The images were taken with the following equipment (DSW):
| Location | Rowe, New Mexico |
| Telescope | Astro Physics RH305 |
| Focal length [mm] | 1159 |
| Focal ratio | 3,8 |
| Mount | Paramount ME |
| Camera | SBIG STX 16803 |
| Filter | R:G:B:Hα:[OIII][SII] |
| Exposure time [min] | 60:60:60:420:420:380 |
| Resolution | 1,66″/px |
Data calibration and registration and the final processing was done with PixInsight. The result was as follows:
