The Fornax Cluster of Galaxies
Around 60 million light years away, the Fornax cluster contains 58 galaxies. NGC 1365 at bottom left is famously known as the "Great Barred Spiral" galaxy.
This is an RGB integration of over 4 hours of data captured in each channel on a QHY163M camera with Optolong RGB filters. Optics were a WO FLT110 scope with WO FlatIV. Image sequencing was controlled via Sequence Generator Pro and PHD2 with a Lakeside Astro focuser to enable autofocus. The mount was a Skywatcher AZ EQ6-GT. All post-processing was done with PixInsight.
