The whole America nebula

This wide (4X7 Degrees) mosaic shows the NORTH America nebula at upper left,
The gulf of Mexico in the center...and South america at the lower part.

The lower part is usually ignored because it is much fainter than the "northern" part...

Please look at the "Original" resolution app' 6400X4500 pixels

2 frame mosaic
Each frame:
Ha - 5 hrs Bin 1
S2,O3 60 min Bin 2

Total about 20 HRS

Some parts were enhanced with previous high resolution older images (the Ridge, the Pelican...)
RGB for the stars was taken from this older image:
