Recommended Posts

This is a small barred spiral galaxy in Triangulum, some 28 million light years distant. It is part of a galaxy group which also contains NGC 1023 and NGC 891.

Captured with the ASI 178/Esprit 150 dual rig, 10.6 hrs of integration made up of:

L 170 x 2 mins

R 55 x 2 mins

G 52 x 2 mins

B 42 x 2 mins (the poor relation once again)

Calibrated and stacked in APP, processed in PI with the XT tool set. Thanks for looking

Nice one! Dont see this one imaged too often.

Was planning on imaging this if i finish my M33 and Stephan's quintet this year, but now i think i dont have to since you've done a great job at it. Not that i probably would have had the time to try this year anyway 😉.

Thanks, l do like to try and image galaxies off the beaten track, unlike SNRs they are not particularly faint, but they are small.

I need a bigger scope, and better seeing, and better weather etc etc…
