NGC 891

January 31, 1999 23:52UT



This is a combination of six eight minute images taken with a Pictor 416XT. The Pictor was attached to an LX200 10" F/6.3 telescope. A Meade ETX was mounted on the telescope and a Pictor 201XT was attached to the ETX for autoguiding. Each of the six images was corrected with a dark frame and a flat field. After combining, the image was logarithmically stretched.

The moon was 8 hours after full.
