Description

Another popular object in "big" version - Cigar Galaxy (Messier 82) in Ursa Major constellation.

One of the brightest galaxies in our sky. It's interesting because of the very intense star creation processes occuring inside of it.

I'll probably hunt it down once agin in this year to collect more luminance to remove annoing noise from the photo. Anyway I'm happy by the result.

Material:

L- 250 x 2,5 s

RGB -50 x 5 s per channel

Composition LRGB

Newton 250/1250 on NEQ-6 + ASI 178MM-C + Baader LRGB
