ASTRO: NGC 2158
I can see why its a favorite. Very nicely imaged Rick. Clear Skyz, LA
"Rick Johnson" wrote in message ... This is the open cluster I meant to image when I got 1133. 2158 has been a favorite of mine in the C14 at Hyde Memorial Obs. where I was a supervisor for 27 years. Looked more like a globular than an open cluster. Now that I have imaged it in color and see most of its stars are red it has something else in common with a globular. It must be rather old. Anyone have anything on this? The cluster is in the same very low power field with M35. That's way too big for this scope! Like the other images posted tonight it was lost and forgotten from two months ago and 4 a.m. My mind doesn't remember much that time of the morning. Reduced by one third to hide lousy seeing. 14" LX200R @ f/10, 6x5 lum, 3x5 RGB, STL-11000M, Paramount ME Rick ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- |
