The Eagle Nebula (Messier 16) in the constellation Serpens

Home of the Pillars of Creation



Captured 10/25/22
Using a Zenithstar 61 telescope, asi183mc pro camera, l-extreme filter
About 2 hours of capture using 63 120 second subs





This was shot in the front yard with the telescope pointed towards the nebula with a bright lampost close by.  So surprised I could still get pretty good results.
