Description

NGC 4753 is a lenticular galaxy, about 60 million light-years away in the Virgo constellation. It looks pretty interesting because of distinct dust lanes that surround its nucleus.
Also to seen a few asteroids with magnitudes 19 to 21.9 and some high proper motion stars(66 years time span)
For the star positions from 1956 I used a DSS1 plate (Based on photographic data of the National Geographic Society -- Palomar Observatory Sky Survey (NGS-POSS) obtained using the Oschin Telescope on Palomar Mountain.)

Rev D shows the offset stack for the mag 19 asteroid
offset x = -0.82px / frame
offset y = +0.08px / frame
