Description

Centaurus A (also known as NGC 5128) is a galaxy in the constellation of Centaurus. Since this galaxy is only visible from low northern latitudes and the southern hemisphere, I acquired the data from GoldField Astronomical Observatory in Australia. The data was very rich and perfectly calibrated. I decide to crop the full frame photo in order to emphasize the target in a smaller field of view.
