Star101 Posted April 20, 2020 Share Posted April 20, 2020 (edited) Taken last night. WiKi - NGC 6951 (also catalogued as NGC 6952) is a barred spiral galaxy located in the constellation Cepheus. It is located at a distance of about 70 million light-years from Earth, which, given its apparent dimensions, means that NGC 6951 is about 100,000 light-years across. It was discovered by Jérôme Eugène Coggia in 1877 and independently by Lewis Swift in 1878. It was a clear dark night last night. I removed my LP filter as I was having imaging problems and not sure what was causing them. I should crop the edges too as this is full image. Thanks for looking. Using C11 on Mesu 200 with Atik 4120EX OSC camera and SGPro, PHD2 and PixInsight. 22 x 600s Edited April 20, 2020 by Star101 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
