Astro: NGC 253 - ngc 253-lrgb-09rewk.jpg (0/1)
NGC 253 - Silver Dollar galaxy
Sculptor Penryn, California November 2008 FS-128 (ag, ST-4) ST-2000XM LRGB 5 minute subs NGC 253 is a bright starburst galaxy classified Sc,. Redshift distance is13Mly This galaxy is very close to my local horizon giving me slightly more than 70 minutes of imaging time. The above image was acquired over four nights each characterized by high humidity and some low ground fog . the weather plus the light dome that is Sacramento caused significant gradients and elevated sky glow. I have avoided imaging this galaxy thinking it was too low but Thanks to Angel Rosario whom successfully imaged it using my equipment I gave it a try. |
