Description
The Seagull Nebula was my favorite deepscape target in January. This composition includes Sirius, the brightest star in the night sky. The blueish speck above the horizon, to the left of the central peak, is Thor's Helmet (NGC 2359). This is an emission nebula, powered by a central Wolf-Rayet star, an extremely hot star, thought to be in a brief pre-supernova stage of evolution.
