Description

Finally catching up with some image processing of data taken back in June -- the wonderful edge-on "Needle Galaxy." Found some 40 million light years away in the constellation of Coma Berenices, the central-bulging core and dusty lanes of gas are easily discerned. Image taken with my C-14 telescope and ZWO ASI071 camera combo, operating at f/6.9.
