I grabbed the L channel last week and the RGB just the other night. 13x15min unbinned for the L channel, and about 7x10min binned 2x2 for the RGB. Comment more than welcome! ---Frank Rocketman Uroda

Description

The Crab Nebula is the most famous and conspicuous remnant of a supernova, which was observed around the world in 1054 AD. In most astronomical handbooks this object is listed as 'bright', but an increase in light pollution has resulted in its becoming harder to see in a modest telescope! Once seen, however, it is not easily forgotten, resembling a gauzy handkerchief fluttering in a cosmic wind.
