"The large-scale homogeneity of the universe makes it very difficult to believe that the structure of the universe is determined by anything so peripheral as some complicated molecular structure on a minor planet orbiting a very average star in the outer suburbs of a fairly typical galaxy."

Great for a first try!

Nice caputure on OIII - the outskirt halo, however it seems that when you combined the RGB, the Ha weight is too small.

You s'd do more NB imaging - is just spectacular what you can get
