NGC 7293 The Helix Nebula - unprocessed image. Located 650 light-years away in Aquarius, this planetary nebula is a dying Sun-like star’s ejected atmosphere, often called the “Eye of God.”

Last image of the night for the Odyssey Pro. Tried to reimage #NGC7293 #TheHelixNebula. Due to the clouds coming in the telescope didn’t process the image. It may be a while before the weather gets better again. #unistellar #odysseypro #space #astronomy #amateur

NGC 7293 The Helix Nebula - telescope processed image with Moon and Sky Light Filter. NGC 7293 is a planetary nebula, one of the closest to Earth. It's the gaseous remnant of a dying, Sun-like star that has puffed out its outer layers.

NGC 7293 The Helix Nebula - unprocessed image with Moon and Sky Light Filter. It is famously nicknamed the "Eye of God" or the "Eye of Sauron" due to its eerie, striking, and immense resemblance to a gigantic eye in space.

Took the s50 out as well. Just focused on #NGC7293 #TheHelixNebula. Due to the high clouds, image is not as good as others i have taken before. #seestar #S50 #space #astronomy #amateur

NGC 7293 / C63 The Helix Nebula - telescope processed image with Moon and Sky Light Filter. NGC 7293, the "Helix Nebula" (or "Eye of God"), is a massive, colorful planetary nebula in Aquarius. It's the ejected outer layers of a dying star.

NGC 7293 / C63 The Helix Nebula - unprocessed image with Moon and Sky Light Filter. The nebula is filled with thousands of strange, comet-like knots of dense, glowing hydrogen gas, each bigger than the size of our solar system.

Here is the s50 newest attempt at #NGC7293 / #C63 #TheHelixNebula. #seestar #S50 #space #astronomy #amateur

NGC 7293 The Helix Nebula - telescope processed image. The Helix Nebula (NGC 7293) is the closest and most spectacular planetary nebula, an "Eye of God" formed by a dying, Sun-like star expelling its outer gas layers.

NGC 7293 The Helix Nebula - unprocessed image. The Helix Nebula is nicknamed the "Eye of God" (or sometimes the "Eye of Sauron") because its ring shape and central star make it look like a giant cosmic eye!

Used the Odyssey Pro to take a look at #NGC7293 #TheHelixNebula. #unistellar #odysseypro #space #astronomy #amateur

NGC 7293 The Helix Nebula - telescope processed image with Moon and Sky Light Filter. The Helix Nebula is a planetary nebula, nicknamed the "Eye of God," formed by the dying outer layers of a Sun-like star about 650 light-years away.

NGC 7293 The Helix Nebula - unprocessed image with Moon and Sky Light Filter. The Helix Nebula contains 20,000+ "cometary knots"—huge gas clouds where each head is at least twice the size of our entire Solar System.

Back to observing #nebula. Here is #NGC7293 #TheHelixNebula. #seestar #S50 #space #astronomy #amateur
