Description

A tiny grouping of 5 galaxies in a row, 16th to 18th magnitude in Ursa Major.
A challenge to see how faint I could go in my industrial park with massive light pollution. The galaxy chain showed up in my 130 refractor images but it took my 17" Astrograph to bring out detail in this tiny group.

Image scale 0.322 arc sec per pixel
Individual 1200 sec resolution 1.5 arc sec FWHM
