Description

NGC7000 and The Cygnus Wall is part of the North America Nebula, also known as Caldwell 20. This emission nebula is very large and this image shows part of the structures known as The Wall, and spans about 10 light-years along an outline that suggests the western coast of Mexico.

This is my second test image with the new 10" carbon truss RC. Just like the first one, this was shot at f/8 and 2000mm using the TSFlat2. I'm very pleased with this combo, but testing with the CCDT67 isnt going too well. I'm going to have to get some more M48 spacers. I have the 1/4", 1/2", 1", and 1 1/2" Blue Fireball spacers, but cant find a combination that will work well. I think StellarVue has some different M48 spacers that I may need to look into buying....or go ahead and buy that Riccardi 0.75X reducer I've been wanting for my 107/700. Its supposed to work well with the GSO RC. This may be my excuse for buying it!
