schmeah Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Perhaps the largest known sphere in the universe, Abell 39 is a faint planetary nebula in Hercules. This was taken on my Avalon M Uno with a QSI 540 and Edge 9.25 @ F/10. LRGB subs were short (3 minutes) and binned x 2 due to wind and poor seeing. Thanks for looking.http://www.pbase.com/dsantiago/image/159862427Derek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Presland Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 It is a beautiful looking object and you have captured a few faint fuzzies around it as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lensman57 Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Excellent result for this difficult target. Great to see it so large.A.G Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schmeah Posted April 27, 2015 Author Share Posted April 27, 2015 Thanks! I was suprised at how many tiny fuzzies are in this field, and also that the PN showed up in such short exposures ( though couldn't really see it on any of the individual subs ).
