It's free data and free to enter and you never know you may win 😀

Roboscopes October-23 Imaging Competition - M27 Up Close & Personal - it's free data & free to enter so what's not to like 😀

We have chosen Pier-9 with for this dataset as we wanted to get a fairly close in high resolution image of M27. We hope some of the outer shells showing well as there is more than enough data to achieve this.

We needed to use our good old 16" Dall Kirkham to get such a close up high resolution shot and we hope you enjoy processing it. Apologies the competition is a little late but our StarParty got in the way of normal proceedings in September :)

289x180s of HA
120x180s of OIII
177x 60s of Red
