My Latest astrophoto attempt at Messier 42
#9
Final one, I promise.
Okay, folks, I promise, this is the final one for this object. I redid all the data and came out with a much better result. Not how much more pin point the stars are, and that they have actually more accurate star colors. Unfortunately, I am not all that thrilled with the other colors. But overall, it is a huge improvement over the previous one. Enjoy:

Messier 42, in Orion
'The difference between a Miracle and a Fact is exactly the difference between a mermaid and seal. It could not be expressed better.'
-- Samuel "Mark Twain" Clemens

"I think that in the discussion of natural problems we ought to begin not with the scriptures, but with experiments, demonstrations, and observations".

- Galileo Galilei (1564-1642)

"In short, Meyer has shown that his first disastrous book was not a fluke: he is capable of going into any field in which he has no training or research experience and botching it just as badly as he did molecular biology. As I've written before, if you are a complete amateur and don't understand a subject, don't demonstrate the Dunning-Kruger effect by writing a book about it and proving your ignorance to everyone else! "

- Dr. Donald Prothero
