S INTERSTELLAR FLORA Benjamin Marks
The Rosette Nebula is a huge H II (ie. ionised atomic hydrogen) region around 5,000
light-years away. At its centre is the open star cluster, NGC 2244. For this image Benjamin
used a Sky-Watcher Black Diamond ED80 telescope and a ZWO ASI1600MM-Pro camera.
Exposures were through H-alpha (11x 600 seconds and 33x 300s) and OIII (48x 300
seconds) filters, for a total time of 8.6 hours.
