Rosette Nebula 2018-11-10

Rosette Nebula

During the same night I imaged the Rosette nebula, acquiring 10 x 5 min, ISO 3200, with the Canon 1100D mod, Canon EF 200mm f/2.8 L II USM at f/6.3, HEQ5, with the IDAS LPS D2 filter clipped in. Compared to my previous attempts, I find this result a more natural, more smooth outcome.

C49 Rosette Nebula – photons from 2016-12-30

Rosette Nebula (Caldwell 49)

In the freezing cold I imaged the C49 Rosette Nebula with my usual equipment:  Canon 1100D mod, 23x135sec, ISO 1600, Canon 200mm f/2.8 @ f/3.5, HEQ5, from Dângău Mare. I can say the session was a success. I used my star handling program to reduce the stars’ dominance over the nebulae.

The curious thing in the frame is the crown shaped denser star field at 6h39′, N2°3′ in the upper left corner. It lies near the open cluster NGC 2262, at 11.3m which is just outside of this frame. I included some Google Sky and SIMBAD images for comparison, and also did an astrometry.net plate solving. With some help from a fellow amateur astronomer, known as nr74 (Németh Róbert), I identified it as Collinder 110, at 10.5m. Noteworthy that the cluster is not listed in other obvious places. See [simbad]

In this frame, open cluster NGC2236, at 8.5m is on old friend, known from the previous attempt to image the Rosette Nebula. It is about 9600 light years away, ie about twenty times further than the Pleiades.

I used the old raw material as described in this post, but this time I used the new program described here. This is the result.

From wikipedia: The Rosette Nebula (NGC 2237, 2238, 2239, and 2246) is a diffuse nebula in Monoceros. It has an overall magnitude of 6.0 and is 4900 light-years from Earth. The Rosette Nebula, over 100 light-years in diameter, has an associated star cluster and possesses many Bok globules in its dark areas. It was independently discovered in the 1880s by Lewis Swift (early 1880s) and Edward Emerson Barnard (1883) as they hunted for comets.

I also looked up the small open cluster on the lower right of the frame, it is NGC 2236. It is about 9600 light years away, ie about twenty times further than the Pleiades.

I reprocessed 20×150 sec, ISO 800, F/4 raws of the Caldwell 49 Rosette nebula using my star handling routine as a step. The camera was the Canon 1100D mod, and the mount the old EQ3. Light acquired on 2016-04-03 at Gyerőfidongó/Dângău Mare.

Jól kalibrált monitoron mindegyik számnál elkülönülő árnyalat látszik. Ha mégsem látszanak, akkor a megjelenített képek színhiányosan rajzolódnak ki. A monitort valószínűleg kalibrálni kell.

You should see distinct shades for each number. If those shades are not clearly visible, the displayed pictures will lack accuracy. Your display most likely needs to be calibrated (brightness, gamma, contrast etc.).
