Messier 92 - The Other Globular Cluster in Hercules
Here is a shot I snapped of the Messier 92 globular cluster this past week at Frosty Drew Observatory in Charlestown, Rhode Island, USA. M92 is found in the constellation Hercules and is one of the brighter globular star clusters visible in the Northern Hemisphere making it, at times, just barely naked eye visible. M96 residing at near 26,700 light years distant and has a diameter of 109 light years.
Photo Details:
Camera: Canon 60D MagicLantern
1370mm
f/9
ISO: 2500
Exposure: 60 seconds * 14 images
This is a median composite of 14 frames to reduce noise.
