Description

Well it's official... I finally got 5 hours of data on a single target... It took 2 days and lots of coffee but I was super happy to see the fine detail and color of NGC4449 emerge during processing! This irregular galaxy resides 12 million light years from Earth in the constellation Canes Venatici and is absolutely fascinating to me. I would love to be on a planet in a starburst galaxy such as this one... I have a feeling the night sky would be a cosmic symphony! Perhaps later this year or next year I'll add another 5 hours and expose even more of that symphony. Clear skies!
