Description

With galaxy season upon us and the weather in the UK being so poor I had a rare clear night during a new Moon on 9th April 2024. With more poor weather being forecast I decided to get my 'galaxy fix' by imaging Abell 1656. This region of space contains over 1,000 identified galaxies and has certainly scratched that itch!
