Violent Vela Supernova Remnant

This was taken from the Kagga Kamma Remote Observatory and is a small section of a larger 21-panel mosaic that I did in collaboration with my friends Dave and Chris. I recommend checking out the better resolution image on Astrobin:  https://app.astrobin.com/i/pdxs0b

Some additional info on my website:  https://www.naztronomy.com/gallery/image/900/vela\_supernova\_subsection\_filaments https://www.naztronomy.com/gallery/image/900/vela_supernova_subsection_filaments

This is actually a mosaic itself, sections of 5 different panels totaling about 30 hours of data (if my math is correct). We wanted to get more data but due but Vela is setting faster and faster and the weather in the winter has been getting poorer. Hope to retry next year in mono!

Here is the equipment list:

\- Telescope: Askar SQA85
\- Camera: QHYCCD QHY268 Pro C
\- Mount: Proxisky UMi 20S
\- Filter: Antlia ALP-T Dual Band 5nm 2"
\- Software: NINA, PixInsight, Siril (mosaic processed using my OSC PP script)

I've been going back and forth on the color, I think I want to do the whole 21 panel mosaic a little differently but wanted to show off this section of Vela. 


If anyone's interested, I interviewed the observatory owners here: https://youtu.be/xgea5UQlhY4
