Astrophotography - Narrowband
*************** NABULAS ***************** -----
False colors ------- Most of the images here are false colors but are based on the same Hubble color palette using narrowband filters Sii (Sulfer 2), Ha (Hydrogen), and Oiii (Oxygen 3). Although the colors are false it clearly shows Sii as red, Ha as green, and Oiii as blue colors - yellow is a mixer of Sii and Ha.

![M42 - Orion Nebula|<br />
The Orion Nebula (also known as Messier 42, M42, or NGC 1976) is a diffuse nebula situated south[b] of Orion's Belt. It is one of the brightest nebulae, and is visible to the naked eye in the night sky. M42 is located at a distance of 1,270±76 light years[2] and is the closest region of massive star formation to Earth. The M42 nebula is estimated to be 24 light years across.<br />
