Relaxing astrophotography imaging session of the Orion Nebula through my telescope from light-polluted Chicago skies. I stacked some subframes live using the ZWO ASIAir Plus live-stack feature.
Located between Betelgeuse and Rigel and below Orion's Belt, the middle star of Orion's Sword is the Great Orion Nebula. In fact there are several amazing objects to be seen there, including the Running Man Nebula and De Marian's Nebula.
This video contains no talking and some labels, so if you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask in the comments.
