My longest project yet, a little over 100hrs total on Andromeda. 62.5h LRGB and another 39.5h on Ha.
Shot from Starfront Remote Observatories with a RedCat51, ASI533MM Pro, and Antlia HaLRGB filters.

The California nebula in Perseus. Just over ten hours of narrow band data shot from Spain in Sept 23, using the Redcat51. The hydrogen gas in the nebula is glowing due to the energy from the nearby star Menkib. #Astronomy #Astrophotography

So long as I made the point that the moon was close enough to include in the frame with Mars and the Beehive, I put my RedCat51 piggyback on the bigger scope and got it both ways. This is a composite, of course, with much shorter exposure time for the moon. #Astronomy #Astrophotography
