So I recently bought a ZWO ASI224MC, and was playing around with it a couple of days ago, specifically the live stacking using ASI studio.
I had the camera connected to my guide scope at that time (WO uni-Guide 32mm 120mm Focal Length) and I took this image of the Flame Nebula.

And i noticed this strange looking object in the image. Obviously all the stars are bloated and have halos, but this particular on stands out.

I did plate solving on astronomy.net and here is the result.

After several hours of research I found this link: http://cdsportal.u-strasbg.fr/?target=V*%20X%20Ori
What is very odd to me is that this almost invisible star (in almost all similar pictures ), is showing up that bright and with this very peculiar halo, on this tiny aperture scope. What is even weirder is that I can see it in the live view using 1 second exposures.
I tried several times, to insure that this was due to equipment errors, but i still go the same results.
When i put a UHC filter on, the star vanished from the picture completely, which i expected due to its faintness.
Mustering all my knowledge I'm guessing this star emits a rather large amount of InfraRed ? that why its being picked up by the camera sensor?
I really can't explain it or understand it, hence I'm turning to the experts to elaborate
