My next project is the region around M78. The weather has not been cooperating so I haven't been able to get any new data lately. So, for inspiration I went back to my data from December 2004 and re-processed it with some newer techniques that I have been working on.

This is what I came up with.

M78; Orion
Astro-Physics 155 EDF f/7 refractor
.67x reducer
ST-10XME LRGB 76:100:40:40 min. L=36Clr, 40B. R= 60Ha, 40R.
December 2004, Inkom, ID

I hope to get some new M78 data soon.

Best,

Tom

Very nice...I wonder how well McNeil's Nebula is showing now? Very prominent in this data from last year.
