Description

Some extra data added to an image from 2020 The Sombrero Galaxy ( DiscoDuck ) - AstroBin. Did as a new image as couldn't get the mouse hover over image to work on the old one.Hover over image is from annotation using Aladin, showing the globular clusters brighter than magnitude 20.5. It amazes me that we can see globulars around another galaxy using a small (8 inch) scope from a suburban backyard!

Added about another 16 hours of luminance data to the 2020 image - using a ZWO 294MM-C Pro on the same scope.
