Bubble Nebula

The Bubble Nebula is a HA emission nebula in Cassiopeia with a distinct bubble shape.

With monsoon season coming to a close the skies are finally clear again. Monsoon season this year was disappointing – it was just hot and cloudy. It was so hot that we broke all the records. With the skies clearing up and temperatures coming down, I’m looking forward to imaging again! :sad:
