NGC 7841, Smoke Nebula..........
NGC 7841 is
probably known as the Smoke Nebula, found in the modern constellation of
Frustriaus, the frustrated astrophotographer. Only a few light-nanoseconds from planet Earth, The Smoke Nebula is not an expanding
supernova remnant along the plane of our Milky Way galaxy, though it does look a lot like one. Instead it was created by flash
photography of rising smoke. The apparently rich starfield is actually composed
of water droplets sprayed from a plant mister by an astrophotographer grown
restless during a recent stretch of cloudy weather in Sweden. A single exposure
and three external flashes were triggered to capture the not-quite-cosmic
snapshot.
