The Taurus Molecular Cloud is a vast region of of gas and dust. There are lots of nebulae in various catalogs all around the cloud. Our team decided to point the telescope somewhere off the beaten path in the cloud that didn’t contain a nebula in any of the commonly used astronomical catalogs but looked interesting in the sky survey we used as a map.
This was the result. I can’t tell you anything about other than that’s it’s in the Taurus Molecular Cloud and that it’s faint. Really faint. So faint that the signal is barely above the noise floor and that was with dedicating over 30 hours of acquisition time to it.
