Supernova Remmant W63 (G082.2+05.3)

W63 (G082.2+05.3) is a rarely imaged supernova located in Cygnus. The main goal of the project was to explore if there was a “hidden” shell inside the supernova. I have found many unseen (as far as I know) structures but can’t assure which of them are part of the supernova or which belongs to the OIII background nebulosity because I didn’t found any deeper image of this object and also not much literature about it.
