Working on editing an image today of a supernova remnant I discovered with a friend! It is almost 3 degrees long which makes it bigger than the andromeda Galaxy in angular size

I spent two years imaging and processing a high resolution multi panel mosaic of the horsehead and flame nebula in Orion, using the @planewaveinstruments CDK14! After countless hours, I’m finally ready to present it, I hope you enjoy it! Copyright Good Astronomy/ Steve Timmons
