I’ve been overseas for the last month with most of my time in the US of A – in honour of returning here’s an image I took over a few nights last week – NGC 3576 “The Statue of Liberty nebula” 🗽🗽🗽

About 7 hours of light data taken with my new telescope – an Askar 103 Apo which reaches deeper into our universe than I’ve been able to do so far. This nebula is over 100 light years across and 9000 light years away…basically, 9000 years ago when this light started making its way to my telescope humans had just started cultivating wheat and barley (and the earliest records of people making beer!)

Hope you like it!
