About This Image

This is our second Seestar collaboration. The image was captured over multiple intermittent nights between April 20, 2026 and July 7, 2026. Data was collected from backyards in Sauble, Owen Sound and Silcote and at the E.S. Fox Observatory. No filter was used for about 80% of other data and roughly 20% of the data used the LP filter to enhance the star forming regions.
