NGC 3576, commonly known as the Statue of Liberty Nebula, was captured through narrowband imaging over a two-week period from December 4 to December 18, 2025. The dataset comprises 80 frames taken with an Antlia ALP-T filter, each exposed for 300 seconds, accumulating 6.67 hours of total integration time. The imaging setup consisted of a Sky-Watcher 200PDS telescope paired with a ZWO 585 MC pro camera, mounted on a Sky-Watcher EQ6 Pro tracking system.
This emission nebula in the southern constellation Carina reveals intricate structures of ionized gas where new stars are forming. The narrowband approach isolates specific wavelengths, enhancing the contrast of nebular features against the background sky. The dataset is available as a free download under CC BY-NC 4.0 license, permitting copying, modification and redistribution for non-commercial purposes.
