LAST NIGHT FROM W 1 ON MEYER FIELD
Author Last Post
Thanks Jeff. How are you proceeding on using your new G11. If you have time, you might come out Saturday night and I can review the quirks of the G11 assuming you are using the Gemini II.

Exceptionally good image, Aubrey. I am envious!

There are about 50 other galaxies in this frame some that are 19th magnitude. You can readily find about 4 others since they are face on or edge on. If anyone is interested a sheet from Glow Hut with 12VDC Power Supply and the inverter with shipping was $104. You can mount it on poster board and rig a mount in an observatory or just lay it on a telescope.


Enjoy.
