M43

By Froggy

Phew, made it

For my 100th blip I have gone for something a little different (I hope BF allow it to remain). This photo was taken by remotely instructing the Bradford Robotic telescope . They retain copyright but the image was technically my creation.
The title of my journal is a clue to the subject of this astrophotograph; I call my journal M43 because I use a Micro 4/3rds camera, but this photo is of Messier Catalogue object no. 43, known for short as M43. This is the cloud at the centre of the image, and is also known as De Marain's Nebula. It's a part of the Orion Nebula
