Description

This is shot using equipment shared by me and Dhaval Bhrambhatt in Marathon, Texas (MaRIO).

This one of multiple targets I was trying to gather a lot of data which ended up no happening due to a variety of reasons. I am archiving the data and processed the available data. The RGB (like all other targets) is especially bad (which I shot for all targets around the same time). I probably will try to collect more data on this next season and augment this.

The chose this target instead of M106 due to its size and this is usually not the main target in most cases. It was also nicely situated when I started on this. I have always liked edge on galaxies and this one with this one is ever slightly tilted to see one of the arms as well.
