Hi, I'm the AstroShap and welcome back to my channel. Thanks for joining me. In today's video, I'm going to be shooting another nebula target, which is in the Construction Orion. And that target is the horse head nebula. So the horse head nebula is an emission nebula. It's primarily made up of ionized hydrogen, so it has a very prominent red hue to it. The reason it's got the name horse head is because it has the shape of a horse head in there, which is where interstermid dust creates kind of a silhouette against the ionized hydrogen. And it is shaped exactly as a horse's head look like from a side profile, at least. So my plan is to shoot that tonight. And what I will do is I'm going to frame it up so that I can get the flame nebula, which sits adjacent to it, all in a single image. And that should be possible with the telescope, but I'm working with, which has got a focal length, with the reducer of about 450 millimeters. So that's the plan. What I'm going to do is I'm going to shoot three-minute subs, which I think will be enough to gather a decent amount of data, but not over, like, blow out the image too much. Because there are some very bright stars in there, so I'm conscious of that. I think in terms of the amount of time I've got to play around with it, it's going to be a similar situation to my previous video, where I shot the Orion nebula, where in the evening, around midnight, the constation Orion dropped behind my neighbor's house. So I'm going to have to make the most of it last weekend. I think I should be able to get that five hours worth if I'm prepared on my plan ahead. So with that, what I'm going to do is I'm going to set the telescope up whilst it's still like, have everything ready to go. And I'm going to try and do a Pogo alignment as early as possible. So as soon as it starts getting dark, I'm going to do that, make sure everything's ready to go, as soon as we get, like, to proper astronomical dot. And then start shooting the target as soon as possible. So that's my plan. With that, what I'm going to do is I'm going to jump to setting up the telescope later in the day. So I've just put the telescope out and I've managed to balance it, get everything set up and do a quick Pogo alignment. And it all looks good. So I stooped the telescope across to the target and it is already shooting. So I'm catching three minute sub exposures. And I think I should be able to get roughly the five hours of originally homecoming. So I'm going to do a quick Pogo alignment and I'm going to do a quick Pogo alignment. And it all looks good. So I stooped the telescope across to the target as I was originally homecoming for. The only concern at the moment is the way that has changed a bit during the course of the day. It does look like there's going to be some cloud rolling in. But it seems to be a pretty intermittent. And it looks like it's going to be high cloud as well. So I'm hoping that it won't impact the images too much. It might just wash them out a little bit. So we'll see. But worst case scenario, I'll filter out the bad subs. And when I put everything into Pixense site, and just keep whatever is the best quality. And hopefully I'll be able to generate a respectable image of the fact that. So it's the first time I've shoot in this target. I don't know what the resulting image is going to look like. But if nothing else, it serves as a baseline for future attempts. And I think with anything in our striphotography, it's always a bit of a line field. You never quite know what you're going to end up on into, whether it's back focus issues or weather or guiding or anything else. So I think it's a tricky hobby. And you keep learning every time you go and put the telescope outside. With that, if you've also enjoyed the video and you like the channel, then please consider subscribing and give this video a like as well. It really does make a big difference, and I really do appreciate it. Otherwise, here is the final image. And hopefully see you in the next video. Thanks for watching. .
