Object: The Veil Nebula	Supernova Remnant	Const.: Cygnus
Camera: SBIG STL11000M	Scope: Tele Vue NP127is	Mount: Losmandy Titan
Filter(s): Hα:R:G:B	Exposure: 16x8m:12x4m:12x4m:12x4m	blank
This image shows the Veil Nebula in Cygnus. This image was acquired using an SBIG STL11000M CCD camera mounted on a Tele Vue NP127is. This image is a color composite of a stack of 16 eight-minute exposures using a hydrogen-alpha filter and stacks of 12 four-minute exposures through red, green and blue filters. All processing was performed using AIP4Win Version 2. This image has been resampled down from its original size of 4008x2672.

 

Hydrogen-α
Object: The Veil Nebula	Supernova Remnant	Const.: Cygnus
Camera: SBIG STL11000M	Scope: Tele Vue NP127is	Mount: Losmandy Titan
Filter(s): Hα	Exposure: 16x8m	blank
This image shows the entire Veil Nebula in Cygnus in the light of its Hydrogen-alpha emissions. This image was acquired using an SBIG STL11000M CCD camera mounted on a Tele Vue NP127is. This image was used for the luminance channel of the color image shown above. This image is a stack of 16 eight-minute exposures that were calibrated, defect-corrected, stacked and sigmoid-scaled using AIP4Win Version 2. This image has been resampled down from its original size of 4008x2672.

 

Object: NGC6992,6979,6960	The Veil Nebula - Supernova Remnant	Const.: Cygnus
Camera: STL-11000M	Scope: Tele Vue NP-101	Mount: Losmandy Titan
Filter(s): L:R:G:B	Exposure: 6x8m:6x8m:6x8m:6x8m	blank
This image of the entire Veil Nebula was acquired using an STL11000 CCD camera on a Tele Vue NP101 4" f/5.4 refractor. The image consists of 6 eight minute exposures for the luminance channel and each of the color channels. The images were calibrated, defect-corrected, stacked and color combined using AIP4Win V2. This image has been resampled down from its original size of 2592x1937.
