Description

NGC 6543 in Draco captured under light polluted skies of Midwest USA city. The deep sky view achieved with my 14.5" Zambuto mirror Starmaster dobsonian scope combined with 2X barlow/focal extender to my digital camera provides a deeper view that is not affected by local light pollution. This is a stack of 2 images of only 10 seconds each at 800 iso. This nebula is known for its very complex structure, shown in detail in this image.
