Needle Galaxy
Needle Galaxy NGC 4565 is a spiral galaxy with edge on appearance. We can see the central bulge that represents the core and it’s apparently obscured by dust lanes which resemble the Galactic arms. The galaxy is 31 Million light years from us and spread on 100,000 light years that resemble our Milkyway galaxy. Gear setup: Celestron HD11 @ f/7, Celestron HD8 @ f/10, iOptron CEM70G, iOptron GEM45, ZWO-L OAG, Askar M54 OAG, ZWO EFW, ZWO EAF, ZWO 2600MM @-5, Antlia LRGB V Pro 2” filters. Light subs L 70 x 300sec, R 18 x 300, G 20 x 300, B 20 x 300. Total exposure 10.5 hours. Bortle scale 4 sky. Captured by NINA, Stacked in APP and processed in PI & PS.
