Good Thursday morning. Sharing results from last nights planned observations. Starting out with #ngc869 #hpersei (right side of image) and #ngc884 #xpersei (left side of image) #star #clusters. #seestar #s50 #space #astronomy #amateur
NGC 869 h Persei and NGC 884 x Persei Star Clusters - telescope processed image with Moon and Sky Light Filter. A magnificent pair of young open star clusters (h Persei and x (chi) Persei) in the constellation Perseus. They are visible to the naked eye as a hazy patch and sparkle with hundreds of hot, blue supergiant stars. NGC 869 h Persei and NGC 884 x Persei Star Clusters - unprocessed image with Moon and Sky Light Filter. Though over 7,000 light-years away, the Double Cluster is one of the most distant objects you can spot with the naked eye from a dark location.

Continuing of the observations with the Odyssey Pro, here is the #cluster #ngc869 #hpersei. #unistellar #odysseypro #space #astronomy #amateur
NGC 869 h Persei - telescope processed image. A rich open star cluster in the constellation Perseus and the western half of the Double Cluster (Caldwell 14) with NGC 884. NGC 869 h Persei - unprocessed image. NGC 869 is part of the Double Cluster, a stunning pair of star clusters visible to the naked eye. The light you see started its trip approximately 7,500 years ago.
