New M14: Globular Cluster with BRC250 + variable stars

[Danilo Pivato]

Hi all,

I'm following the recent image of M14 made ​​with the F.F.C.

a new image of the same globular cluster, but this made with

the Takahashi BRC250.

In the map was given the position of all 93 + NOVA (1938)

variable stars in M14, while the catalog is at bottom page

of the map.

The old image of M14 with FFC:

M14 FFC L

The new image of M14 with BRC250:

M14 BRC L

Wow very nice M14, I look forward to seeing more images from the BRC.

Excuse my ignorance, Danilo, but what's the FFC? Some kind of fast newt or another Ritchey Chretien?

No!

The Flat Field Camera SCL 760/4 (F.F.C.) of the Lichtenknecker

Optics (Belgium) a telescope that I have for about 23 years,

is a concentric aplanatic reflecting telescope with external focus,

very bright, particularly indicated for long exposure astronomical

photography. At this link you will find more information:
