Using electronically assisted astrophotography, we image M8, the Lagoon Nebula, located in the constellation Sagittarius. M8 is a huge, emissions nebula. Within its' brilliant core is a swirling, enormous body of gasses and molecular dust that is known as the "Space Tornado." This "Space Tornado" is one of several that are the result of the powerful stellar winds, intense radiation, and extreme heat being generated by new, young stars in the core of the Nebula. In 2018, the Hubble Telescope chose the core of the Lagoon Nebula for its' anniversary imaging session and captured a spectacular photograph of the "Space Tornado." In this video, Shadow and I camp on top of Gooseberry Mesa, elevation 5,000 feet, bortle 2 skies, and image the Lagoon Nebula. Although we cannot compare to the Hubble Telescope and the detailed, incredible image captured by it; we nonetheless did succeed in capturing a very nice image of the Lagoon Nebula. We also succeeded in capturing enough detail to identify the "Space Tornado" and the others nearby it. We captured 117 images of 30 second exposures. Using Electronically Assisted Astrophotography and SharpCap Software, we were able to see the image build as the individual frames were stacked. The telescope is an Orion Maksutov-Newtonian Telescope, 1000mm focal length, and 190mm Aperture, making it an f5.3. The camera used is a full frame color CMOS camera, the Orion G24. We also go on a hike where we can see the entrance to Zions National Park. The prickly pear cactus are in bloom and we photograph the pink and yellow flowers they produce. From the edge of the Mesa, we can see far below and wide. The scenic view was incredible. All up, we camped on top of the Mesa for 2 nights and had a wonderful time. Shadow and I both hope you join us on this Adventure of Shadow. #adventuresofshadow #astrophotographyadventures #astrophotographycamping #astrophotography
