Description

18 x 10 minute Luminance

10 x 10 minutes binned 2x2 for each R, G, B

8 hours in total.

Im finding it a tricky thing to image. I need clearer skies and a longer focal length.

I can just make out a very faint fuzzy in the middle left of the image. It's a galaxy with the snappy name of SDSS587733079736254633. This galaxy is 193 Megaparsecs from us. Thats 637 million light-years from us! :-0
