The Triangulum Galaxy located in the constellation Triangulum is 2.7 million light years from Earth and is the second closest galaxy to our own Milky Way Galaxy and is part of the local group. The galaxy is rich in H2 star forming regions. Close examination reveals the spherical hydrogen gas being blown from the new formed stars. This image was taken with an ASI2600MM camera. John took RGBL and Ha narrow band data. Most of this data was taken at Craters of the Moon and Massacre Rocks. The telescope used was Explorer Scientific APO 104mm f7.
