IC405, the Flaming Star Nebula in Auriga. This image is a stack of 12 eight minute exposures shot through a Hydrogen-alpha filter. The exposures were acquired using an SXV-H9 CCD camera on a Tele Vue NP-101 4" f/5.4 refractor using a 0.8x focal reducer. The exposures were calibrated, defect-corrected and stacked using AIP4WIN. This image has been resampled down from its original size of 1392x1040.
