Elephant’s Trunk
Data collected last fall, through a Hyperstar mounted to a Celestron Edge 8.
Was running the Optilong L-Enhance filter to combat the Bortle 7/8, but discovered that certain filters don’t do well with an image train capable of F/1.9 speeds. (Speed limits on a filter—who knew?!).
Data looked great excepting the ginormous “ring” that can’t be unseen once you see it.
Perhaps some more data through a better filter is in order, if the weather ever clears.
