Description

To obtain this image we have had many problems with the wind and therefore in the guidance, during the whole weekend, a wrong gain setting has also been used, I realized at the end

NGC 225 is an open star cluster located approximately 2,000 light-years away in the constellation Cassiopeia. It is sometimes known as the Sailboat Cluster. It was discovered by Caroline Herschel in 1783.

Also associated with this cluster is the bright nebula vdB4 (LBN 604). This may be the remnant of the nebula that formed this star cluster. The dark nebula visible in the lower right is LDN 1302.
