Description

This was a tough one for me since this target is in direct line of some major lighht pollution from Denver, CO. Also, it sits pretty low in the sky right now so the seeing towards the horizon isnt great. I will add more time later this month when it gets higher in the sky.

Equipment:
ASI2600MM-Pro
Antlia 36MM LRGB
iOptron RC8
AP CCDT67 Reducer @ 1200mm FL
