Object: | Galaxy M33 in Triangulum | |
Date: | August 2008 | |
Location: | Sierra Remote Observatories California | |
Telescope: | RCOS 16" f/8.9 | |
Camera: | Apogee U16M with AstroDon Gen2 Filters | |
Wavelengths: | LRGB | |
Exposure Time: | 7.5 hours | |
Notes: | Many nebulae, HII regions and even a Globular Cluster are visible in the hi-res LRGB image. However, even more appear in a 7.5 hourr 6nm H-alpha filtered image. Its exciting to be able to photograph deep sky objects in another galaxy with a modest telescope. |
