NGC 1769 is an emission nebula that lies not in our home Milky Way Galaxy but in one of the next galaxies over — the Large Magellanic Cloud, some 160,000 light-years away. This nebula is also part of the larger NGC 1763 star-forming complex. This imager used a 17-inch scope to capture 44 hours of SHORGB data.
