NGC 2467, known as the Skull and Crossbones Nebula, is a star-forming region in the southern constellation Puppis. This dataset comprises 179 frames captured through an Antlia ALP-T filter, each with a 300-second exposure, yielding approximately 14.9 hours of total integration time. The data was acquired between February 17 and March 11, 2026, using an Askar 91F APO Refractor paired with a ZWO ASI585MC Air camera on a Sky-Watcher EQ6 Pro mount.
The nebula's distinctive appearance, which inspired its macabre nickname, results from complex interactions between ionized hydrogen regions and dark dust lanes.
