Messier 33

M 33 is a part of the Local Group of galaxies and is about half the size of our own galaxy. At magnitude 5.7, it's a good object for amateur imagers, but capturing fine detail in its dust lanes can take several hours or more of integration time. This image was created from just over 12 hours of total exposure, including 2 hours of narrowband integrations to show some of the active HII regions in the galaxy. Processed in Siril, Affinity, Nebulosity and Topaz denoise.
