Description

I captured this one from home with a mixed bag of results, but managed to get some decent integration time on it over many nights.  

I did a little research to determine the distance of some of the little fuzzies in the background.  From what I've found the PGC catalog is now LEDA/HyperLEDA.

This is one of the galaxies in the cluster on the lower left.  Shown as Hubble Distance CMB [MPC] of 765.29 ± 53.57.  There is a degree of uncertainty there, but if I've converted this right that's about 2.4 billion light years away.  I used https://aladin.cds.unistra.fr/AladinLite/ with target `2MASX J12365307+2551119` to determine the object which was very handy in determining this!

Looking forward to grabbing more this galaxy season!
