Description

I don't have a long focal length telescope at the moment so I was just curious what I could achieve with my FSQ106IV and the Full frame  QHY600M. 
Quite happy with the outcome. SEVERE CROPPING!!  Don’t look too close… 🫣

The colliding NGC's 4038 and 4039, 63 million light years away. In another 400 million years they will become one galaxy. I'll set my alarm.....

Anyway it was some fun while I was waiting for the galactic core to rise.
