NGC 2359 - More big images from small telescopes
NGC 2359, Thor's Helmet an emission nebula in Canis Major.
An extremely hot Wolf-Rayet star excites this faint wind-blown nebula in Canis Major. There is strong Hydrogen Alpha and OIII emission as can be seen in the animation. http://www.martin-nicholson.info/ngc2359/ngc2359.htm Martin Nicholson, Daventry, England. http://www.martin-nicholson.info/1/1a.htm Visit the Astronomical Hall of Shame at http://www.geocities.com/queen5658/ |
