Supernova 2023cpt in Galaxy NGC 5915
A small group of galaxies about 110 million light-years away. The reason to target this was the supernova in one of the galaxies, NGC 5915, bright enough to image with my modest equipment (about 15th magnitude). You can also see evidence of the gravitational interactions among the trio by their distorted spiral structure.
Taken from suburban Bloomnington, Indiana. Celestron Edge 8 SCT (203mm aperture f/10), 0.7x reducer/flattener, ZWO ASI294MC one-shot color and ZWO ASI2600MM monochrome cooled CMOS cameras, Losmandy GM811G mount, ASIAir controller, auto-guided. Processed in Astro Pixel Processor, Lightroom, and Photoshop.
