Globular Cluster Palomar 13 and NGC 7479

Link: http://www.starscapeimaging.com/Palomar%2013/Palomar13.html

Palomar 13 is one of the faintest globular clusters known. Its combined magnitude is around Mag 13 with individual stars as bright as Mag 17. It lies in the constellation Pegasus. Pal 13 is 82 thousand light years distant and is orbiting through the halo of the Milky Way. Its definitely a small object of 1.8 arc min in size. As a bonus, also in the field is the barred spiral galaxy NGC 7479, a magnitude 11.9 galaxy. There are also many other small PGC and un-named galaxies. Also surprising was the amount of molecular dust in this area. It actually is throughout the image with a brighter patch in the upper right. The image was taken with a 6" Stellarvue SVX152T refractor and ASI 6200 camera using 2x2 binning and is comprised of 11.5hrs of exposure time.

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
