Description

Like many of us, I was eager to try the new BlurXterminator on a favorite galaxy to see what it could really do.  In short, I'm shocked and incredibly pleased.  To the point where I feel the need to reprocess everything!  

This is also a good look at growth over the last two years of imaging, since the last time I've visited this target.  Revision 3 shows the previous version.
