Description

A bit low in the sky from South Australia for comfortable imaging. But love the side on galaxy visible through M96's outer arms at the top.

Edit: Thanks to Pascal Le Clech for pointing out that this image includes supernova SN 2024gda (officially discovered April 9 but present here in data taken on and before April 7). In fact, seems to have appeared between April 2 and April 4 from the subs. Note that the supernova is actually in the background galaxy 2mfgc 8391 mentioned above.
