Image Description and Details: Dolphin Nebula Sh2-308, is located about 5,200 light years from us. Its shape resembles the shape of the marine mammal. The bright star at its center, with a mass presumably over twenty times that of the sun, creates a stellar wind that illuminates the nebula.
This is my processing of data received from amateur astronomer friends of the ShaRA project, which includes over 20 astrophotographers.
