A few more shots from last Tuesday’s astro session: (top left) North America Nebula (NGC 7000) 50 stacked frames from the ZWO071MC camera. (top right) The Eagle Nebula, Messier 16, sometimes called Star Queen is a diffuse nebula in the constellation Serpens. M16 was only 22° above the horizon to the southeast when I was taking these subs, low enough to have the atmosphere and some light pollution from Hampton affect the result. Even so, I’m here in New Hampshire at 43° latitude, and I’ll take any chance I can get to shoot the Eagle Nebula. (bottom right) Swan Nebula (M17, Checkmark Nebula, Omega Nebula, NGC 6618) is another H II region in the constellation Sagittarius. Another one of the Globular Cluster in the constellation Hercules (M13).
