Messier 76

Here is M76 taken from an advanced request I did in October of 2023 using SPA-2-CMOS. It was a challenging shot due to low integration time and shorter subs on a narrowband target like this. I started to see some faint outer stuff coming in and I tried to get that as much as I could. You should see the original though, because ti really shows up when stretched so hard that you have severe banding. I would love to revisit this target with both longer subs and more integration time.
