NGC 1763 THE BEAN NEBULA

NGC 1763 is an emission nebula located in the Large Magellanic Cloud, approximately 163,000 light-years from Earth. It is part of a larger star-forming region known as the N11 complex, where intense stellar activity leads to the birth of new stars. The nebula's appearance is structures of gas and dust illuminated by the radiation from young, massive stars.

Photographed in October 2024 using my Edge HD telescope with a monochrome camera with LRGB and HA filters.
