Shot at IC Astronomy Observatory, Spain
I’ve returned to this target a few times, and each time I processed it, I wasn’t happy with the result. I worked it up from scratch again and am happy with this version. I may come back, but I’m pretty happy with the result for now! I hope you like it as well. 🙂
CTB 1 (Abell 85, SNR G116.9+0.1) is a supernova remnant in the Cassiopeia constellation. It was initially cataloged by George Abell as a planetary nebula. It was later identified as a supernova remnant by van der Bergh, Marscher, and Terzian in 1972. It's approximately 10,000 light-years from Earth and is approximately 100 light-years in diameter. (Hailey and Craig, Astrophys. J. 434:635, 1994).
