Description

Light was collected on two separate nights in May 2024, but it must be said that the improvement over the first night was rather modest: here too a case of limited gain with increased integration.
However the dimmer and smaller galaxies visible in the picture are magnitude 13+, which from a magnitude 18 sky with a 50 mm aperture scope  is something.
