Andromeda galaxy
It's that time of year again and I can't resist getting another session on Andromeda.
This time with LRGB filters and guided tracking giving less bloaty stars (and better colours!) than the last effort (flic.kr/p/2mA5eTe) which was unguided and there is also more space (literally!) around the galaxy. I'd like to get more data to make those outer arms sing a bit more.
Date: 30 Aug 2022
Equipment: Redcat 51, ASI1600MM mono cooled camera with LRGB filters, ZWO EAF, iOptron GEM28 guided.
16 x 300s each of LRGB at -15degC, 120 gain, processed in APP, StarTools and Gimp.
