Description

Tried out iTelescope! Using T59 a Planewave 20" CDK located in Australia, I got 10hrs over several nights. Processing was very complicated...and combined different amounts of stretching of my Lum to not blow out the galaxy, and other tricks. I have always been fascinated by this object, reminds me of the worms in DUNE, about to eat the galaxy. It is interesting that the nebula is 1300 LY away but the galaxy is more than 100 million LR away!
