Observing With NASA 2


This image that I processed is the Orion Nebula.

Like the previous picture, I adjusted the 3 images taken for me using the Log and then Auto button. After that I reduced the noise of each one and then I changed each picture into a different color which were red, blue and green. I then converted the images into a stack and aligned the 3 pictures together after pressing the Shift button and then I converted them into an RGB.

Some facts about the Orion Nebula is that it is obviously in the constellation Orion, more specifically Orion's belt. It is also given the name Messier 42 or M42. It is also the closest massive star formation region to Earth. Awesome right?
