Description

This image is a stack of 29 taken from Iluka, Western Australia on December 5 2021. Capture frames were taken at gain 120, -10C for 180 seconds. Although seeing was not particularly great (warm and very windy) the galaxy was almost directly overhead which has compensated somewhat.

The Wikipedia entry for this galaxy is well worth reading, particularly in respect of the central black hole and the MUSE image referenced...
