About this image

The November 2024 Deep Sky Section Object of Interest.

This completely unretouched stack of 37 10-second subs is remarkably good in my opinion, given that it was taken with a f/5 50mm refractor in a badly light polluted location. I get ever more impressed with the capability of the Seestar S50.
