Is it roughly 1500ly from earth. The super nova exploded around 3000-6000 years ago and is visible in the three parts; the Eastern Veil, Western Veil and Pickering's Triangle. This is around 2hrs of exposure time in the three wavelengths, Red, Green and Blue.

This galaxy is pretty small (30million light yrs away) for a backyard astrophotographer but it's a fun target. If you want to see a mind blowing image of this one, google: hubble IR sombrero.

Copernicus Crater

This is a collage of the 2015 Lunar Eclipse from start to finish. The center image is the eclipse in full totality.

This is a supernova remnant called the Veil Nebula. It's one of my favorite summer objects to image. Exposure 3hours with 6" Ritchey Chrétien f/5.6

The gash down the center of the range is called the Alpine Valley and is about 6 miles at it's widest point. The crater to the left that is almost blacked out is Plato. — The gash down the center of the range is called the Alpine Valley and is about 6 miles at it's widest point.

This night the moon is at perigee, meaning at it's closest point to earth, and it happens to be full at the exact same time! This full moon will be 30 percent brighter and 14 percent larger than the smallest full moon of the year, according to Space.com.

The core of this galaxy can be seen with the unaided eye. In fact, this is the furtherest thing that you can see with the naked eye. This is an exposure of about 4.5 hours with an SBIG astronomical camera - ST-8300c.
