This is a 3 x 3 mosaic (9 panels) of Scorpion wide field. Total acquisition time was 513 minutes using Takahashi FSQ-106ED telescope and Pentax 645z camera.

Data was collected in June this year, on Mauna Kea, Big Island, HI. The whole session spanned about one week.

The picture was reduced to 1/16 of its original size before uploading (1/4 width & hight of original photo.)
