Description

The Sculptor or Silver Coin galaxy, NGC 253, in the constellation Sculptor, about 12 million light years distant. Captured from our quite dark (bortle 2/3) rural backyard in the Bay of Plenty, New Zealand. About two and a half hours of exposure time. I stacked the Seestar exposures in Astro Pixel Processor, then processed the stacked image Pixinsight.
