RCW 38 - do look at this full screen.

An area I have always known of but never looked at it . So for every body benefit what follows is a look at the process. Remember this a B/W camera with different coloured filters, you will note that while they are all B/W the detail in each is very different to the rest. RCW 38 is 100% center of shot A star forming region of space..... Remember this is all new to me as well as I feel my way.

Ha shows up the Hydrogen in the shot and as the most abundant element out in space, the Ha shot has the most detail.



SII shows up the sulphur component in the shot



O3 shows up the Oxygen component in the shot. In this shot you can see why I have purchased a new set of narrow band filters the huge halo on the big star.



The Narrow band stars and why you have a better chance with RGB stars



Once Combined in Pixinsight in what order depends the colours you get this is Combined in the Hubble pallet SII Ha O3

3: 30 hours of stacking all the shot at the same time, 1:30 H in editing to get this shot quite a lot of the process on my old computer take 5 min or more to run, this is why the time for editing is so high. You can see why this is so popular as a way of shooting the stars far more detail and finer detail than a normal colour camera.

Close by is the Vela Super Nova Area
