VDB142 Ha

Posted By Thomas V Davis

Nice image Jason! Very sharp and well defined.

BTW, you can't see vdB142 in this image, since it is an H-alpha image. vdB142 is a small reflection nebulae adjacent to the B3 type star HD239710 projected in front of the globule IC1396A. The "Elephant Trunk" is IC1396A.

Still, excellent image!
