Description

This image is the sum of 185 120 secs unguided subs taken on the 1st of April 2020 with an unmodded Nikon d5300, a PrimaluceLab UHC filter and a TS 65  quadruplet. This on top of an Orion USA Newton 250 F 3.9 and an Ioptron CEM60 EC.Stacking with DSS and processing with Astroart 8.

NGC 4565, also known as the Needle Galaxy or Caldwell 38, is an edge-on spiral galaxy about 30 to 50 million light-years away in the constellation Coma Berenices. It lies close to the North Galactic Pole and has a visual magnitude of approximately 10. It is known as the Needle Galaxy for its narrow profile. First recorded in 1785 by William Herschel, it is a prominent example of an edge-on spiral galaxy.
