Day 1525 #DailyPhoto #SkyWatch #Astrophotography The #BatNebula aka #IC1340 is part of the #CygnusLoop connected to the #EasternVeil Nebula. It was discovered in 1864 by Truman Henry Safford, the director of the Hopkins Observatoey at Williams College. This image is 11 ten-minute exposures captured with a 571mm scope using a dual band filter that blocks the whole light spectrum except the bands for ionized hydrogen and oxygen. #StillLearning
