Description

This target is about 16 million light years from us. The galaxy has highly dynamic range with extremely bright core and very faint outer halo

L: 27 X 1200"

L: 15 X 300"

RGB: 18 X 600" each

You may noticed there is a streak artifact on the right. Initially I though it was a newly found jet stream, but further review shows it is internal reflection from my homemade extender. I don't have a good way to get rid of it without introducing more artifacts, so I just leave it there.
