Barnard 33 region
So again did we make an attempt at the wonderful horsehead nebula, though this time the full moon was not up as the last time so this image turned out a lot better than the last one! The horsehead nebula is a dark nebula located in Orion and is about 1500 light years away from earth. This night might be the last one for us together doing astronomy after work. Hopefully we can pull one night doing astro imaging during the holidays before this season is over.
