My 3rd Close Up of the SMC
Another close up image of a region in the Small Magellanic Cloud. This frame contains NGC456, NGC460 and NGC465... not the brightest or most impressive part of the SMC, not even imaged during the best atmospheric conditions but still a good object to have in the SMC ECU collection.
This bi-color image was exposed through a Celestron C8 at f6.3 (1280mm focal length in theory but 1219mm FL mathematically) with a QHY268M camera and the 2 channels were integrated through Baader 7nm H-Alpha and OIII filters.
Total integration time for this image was 5 hours and 20 minutes.
