We return to the Orion region after 2 years to uncover new details using our latest gear, the Takahashi FSQ-106 EDX4, a 6200MM camera, and 3nm Chroma filters. This setup promises to reveal even more breathtaking features than my 2022 attempt.

The Elephant's Trunk Nebula, designated as IC 1396A, is a concentration of interstellar gas and dust within the larger emission nebula IC 1396. Located in the constellation Cepheus, this nebula is approximately 2,400 light-years away from Earth. The Elephant's Trunk Nebula gets its name due to its elongated shape, resembling the trunk of an elephant.
