Description

Such a cool region of the sky.  So much going on.  From my research, there are many galaxies in this image, and at least two quasars, one at about 11.2 billion years away.  That one is a tiny dot under the small cluster of galaxies under 3718.  Space is cool!  Had better luck with this, compared to my image at 2032mm.  the sky was also much calmer!
