SVX140T - Rosette
Tony Hallas managed to capture this incredibly vivid image of the Rosette Nebula (Caldwell 49) in Monoceros with the SVX140T. This emission nebula rests approximately 5,200 light-years away from Earth and has a diameter of about 130 light-years. Radiation from young stars in this region excites this nebula's atoms, causing them to emit their own radiation, resulting in this object's characteristics and visual display.
