astroenthusiast 279 Posted September 12, 2021 This past Friday was a beautiful evening, so I decided to set up the astronomical equipment and capture a close-up, 65-minute exposure of the Andromeda Galaxy and NGC 205 also designated as Messier 110 to the lower left. Messier 110 is a dwarf elliptical galaxy that acts as a satellite of the Andromeda Galaxy also designated M31. The image was captured using the Explore Scientific ED 165mm APO refractor at F/7, using an ASI2600 CMOS color camera, with a temperature set at -15 Celsius. An LPO filter was used to reduce light pollution and calibrated images, lights, darks, bias, and flats. Stacking software used Astro Pixel Processor. 1 Link to comment
