This nebula, which I’m going to call “the outflow” is one which you will not be able to find any other photographs of. You may wonder what it is, but the truth of the matter is that nobody knows. What I can say for sure is that this is an absolutely massive galactic scale nebula which is embedded inside of m31.
An image like this represents the frontier of our understanding of the night sky, and that space exploration is still possible for us to do here on earth!
To provide some context I’ve also included a wider view of the outflow so you can see it has been hiding in plain sight in one of the most photographed objects ever! The total exposure time spent to capture these images totals about 340 hours of exposure time.
This image is available in my calendar which is still preorder only until Dec 1. So order now while you still can!
