We are excited to share our latest astrophotography project capturing the stunning beauty of M81 and M82, alongside the enigmatic Vulcan Nebula (WPS46) and the Ursa Major Supernova Remnant (SNR). This image is a result of countless hours of planning, data collection, and processing from multiple telescopes across various locations.

**Gear:**

* **Telescopes:** Takahashi FSQ-106EDX4
* **Cameras:** QHY600PH M, ASI6200MM Pro
* **Mounts:** Astro-Physics 1100GTO, 1600GTO-AE
* **Filters:** Chroma (H-alpha, OIII, RGB)
* **Integration:** 150 hours 10 minutes

**What makes this image special?**

During a wide-field survey using a 135mm lens, we stumbled upon a faint blue/green signal near M81/M82. What started as a search for OIII structures connected to the Uma SNR led us to the Vulcan Nebula, an object that’s been previously identified but rarely captured in such detail. The deeper we explored, the more surprises we found, including a filament of H-alpha gas, likely tied to the supernova remnant.

**Astrometry details:**

* **RA:** 09h48m24s.2
* **DEC:** +69°26′27″
* **Field radius:** 4.5 degrees

* **Coordination:** Tim Schaeffer
* **Processing:** Steeve Body
* **Photography & Alternate Version Processing:** Bray Falls
* **Photographers:** Curtis Morgan, Tarun Kottary, Patrick Sparkman

We collaborated to create this wide-field mosaic, revealing intricate structures of interstellar dust (IFN), the Vulcan Nebula, and even the smallest background galaxies. The level of detail is overwhelming, and we hope you enjoy this galactic masterpiece as much as we enjoyed bringing it to life!
