15th Feb 2024: Astro Pixel Processor 2.0.0-beta29 released - macOS native File Chooser, macOS CMD-Q fixed, read-only Fits on network fixed and other bug fixes
7th December 2023: added payment option Alipay to purchase Astro Pixel Processor from China, Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan, Korea, Japan and other countries where Alipay is used.
This image was created in the past year by myself and 3 fellow astrophotographers, Sara Wager, Kees Scherer and Dominique Dierick. It's a mosaic of 8 panels that I started in 2016 and I'm slowly extending to cover more area. For every panel I try at least to get 5 hours of H-alpha data. Sara, Kees and Dominique were so nice to share their data on this region improving the quality of the image in many ways!
The mosaic was generated with the Astropixelprocessor software which did a great job in processing and mosaicing this image. Hats off for the possibilities!

Extraordinary effort, everyone! The mosaic looks great with incredible details.
@Sara - 73 hours! When do you have time to make all your videos?
Congratulations everyone on a very impressive astrophoto.
