  • Relaxing astrophotography imaging session of the Orion Nebula through my telescope from light-polluted Chicago skies. I stacked some subframes live using the ZWO ASIAir Plus live-stack feature.
    Located between Betelgeuse and Rigel and below Orion's Belt, the middle star of Orion's Sword is the Great Orion Nebula. In fact there are several amazing objects to be seen there, including the Running Man Nebula and De Marian's Nebula.
    This video contains no talking and some labels, so if you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask in the comments.

    Love it! It would be so amazing to see the whole sky like this in one image.

    Love the unique take on this Nick! I've gotten tired of M42 videos and this was more than refreshing!

    well done.....perfect timing and placement on the ending. The Plus is a game changer for me - I love sitting at my desk in front of a Dell 49" curved watching the subs roll in . Very therapeutic.......like your video

      Thanks very much! Yes, I spent some time making sure the alignment worked at the end; it's sometimes fun to put these objects into a naked-eye perspective 😀

    A very cool and unique way of presenting a popular target - nicely done!👌

    Excellent image, Nick! That's quite some halo you've got going on... especially around Hatysa. But the amount of detail you can pull with just 2 hours of data with that RASA... wow!

      Many thanks! Yes, I didn't attempt to correct it at all in the processing, will wait until I have some more integration time 😎

    Wow wonderful ❤️. With rasa can we see distant galaxies? Even it is small?

      Thanks! Yes, it can definitely see galaxies! The closer and larger ones like Andromeda, Triangulum and Whirlpool and Pinwheel there is quite a bit of structure visible, and for smaller ones it can pick them up but the view isn't zoomed in enough to see a lot of detail. At some point I'll do one of these "no talking" videos looking at some galaxies
