Stars and Globules in the Running Chicken Nebula

Here’s an SHO image from telescope live. This dataset had a pretty interesting quirk, which was that some of the given astronometric solutions from telescope live were formatted incorrectly, which broke WBPP and forced me to do some shady coding. Anyway, I’ve been working on a new method of SHO processing using MMT and GHS to even the midtones of each channel, which give the final image a lot more color. It also helps that this region has such a big diversity of gas emission
