Exploring & Imaging the Eagle Nebula: Realm of the Star Queen

Some 6,500 light years from Earth lies the realm of the Star Queen: The Eagle Nebula. It is a vast spacescape that has given birth to thousands of stars and may give rise to thousands more in cosmic EGGs filled with an albumen of dust and gas. It contains structures light years in size that resemble mythical beasts. It is the location of the Pillars of Creation, one of the most beautiful and famous astronomical images ever captured, pillars that are eroding like stones in a swift river. Let's tour this favorite target of astrophotographers and astronomers everywhere.

I really enjoy your narration on top of the images, it’s adds so much to the enjoyment of Astro photography :)

Wonderful narration! When I started narrowband astrophotography a long time ago (in July) it was my first target. Didn’t even know what I was imaging! Thanks for the great video.

Another excellent presentation.

I enjoy all your content, but this was amazing!
Many videos of this area lately. This gave me chills. Passionately inspiring.

I noticed after I made this video that there had been a slough of others on the Eagle Nebula. I think it is because it's currently positioned to be pretty visible in northern latitudes.

Great Video❤❤❤

Amazing

An amazing video! Thank you so much for creating it. It gave me the inspiration to combine my 7h of M16 with my 5h of M16 from two year ago. Even though I have used my RC8 once and once my 150/750 Newton I was able to combine all the data. The combination of both data sets already looks amazing with just the screen stretch applied.

It is amazing what more time on target can do. I have found data reaches certain critical masses where even adding just another hour makes an amazing difference.

Your version is better than my version, but not by the usual million light years :)

[@SKYST0RY]

I'd like to see your version. Good job!
