Description

A quick one on a bright and majestic globular cluster: M92.
M92 is often overlooked because of the nearby M13 (The Great Hercules Cluster) but M92 is in my opinion actually slightly more impressive! This is a great target for visual astronomy, but also a perfect object for beginner astrophotographers to capture. It is bright, large, and easy to image! This was just one hour of exposure from a Bortle 4 zone.

Taken with the QHY 600 and SVX130 telescope.
