    Very cool.  Great detail in the nebula.  Interesting reflections from the star.

    May I know why there are layers from a star?

    Thanks everybody and i am happy that u like it. The amount of light bounce through the hyperstar system and the mirror of the telescope many times, back and forth many times and thats why we can see this multiple layers arround the bright star. Thanks again!
