The Angel Nebula
Distance: 2400 Light Years
Thx ams.astrophotography for these reference images. I must confess that I had not planned to make this a BAT target but some of the bat members produced such beautiful images that I couldn’t resist. Also I apologise for this target coming online so late…. but better late than never!
