ASTRO: NGC 2366
NGC 2366 is a quite similar object to IC 2574 that Rick posted a while ago.
I only planned to do luminance shots but added a bit of colour in a later night to see which colour the bright knot has. Taken from the middle of Berlin with an 8" SCT at f/6.5, G11 mount, SXV-H9 camera, 40x5 minutes for Lum and 5 minutes each for RGB (2xbin). The picture can also be found at http://ccd-astronomy.de/temp/2366-40x5colourgut.jpg Stefan |

ahh, yes, one of those diffuse ones like Rick recently posted.
those are just too cool Stefan you may want to try halpha on that one... "Stefan Lilge" wrote in message ... NGC 2366 is a quite similar object to IC 2574 that Rick posted a while ago.

If I don't have too much snow in my Polaris tree I'll give this one a shot next year. When it was positioned right the tree was leaning a good 5 degrees due to the weight of the snow it was carrying and I couldn't hit it. By the time a wind storm blew it out the galaxy was too far west and again in that tree. Rick -- Correct domain name is arvig and it is net not com. Prefix is correct. Third character is a zero rather than a capital "Oh". |

Rick, this picture was taken before I got the 10". I still have a backlog of
8" pictures... Stefan "Rick Johnson" schrieb im Newsbeitrag ... Stefan Lilge wrote: NGC 2366 is a quite similar object to IC 2574 that Rick posted a while ago.

Here's one of many interesting notes from the NED: 10. 1994CAG1..B...0000S NGC 2366 M81/NGC 2403 Group Hubble Atlas, p. 39 SBmIV-V PH-555-B Oct 31/Nov 1, 1951 103aO + GG1 30 min NGC 2366 is a member of the M81/NGC 2403 Group, as originally defined and catalogued by Holmberg (1950). It resolves into stars as easily as other members of the group, such as NGC 2403, M81, IC 2574, HoI, HoII, and NGC 4236. The brightest stars begin to resolve at about B = 19. The distance modulus of the group is m - M = 27.6 (Tammann and Sandage 1968). The value has been confirmed (Freedman and Madore 1988). The largest of the HII regions at one end of the major axis has a diameter of about 12" for its high-surface-brightness main body. The extent of its outer associated filaments is 18". These angular diameters correspond to linear diameters of 190 psc and 290 psc, respectively, at a distance of 3.3 Mpc (Tammann and Sandage 1968). The redshift is v_o = 281 km/s. |

That guy has not got much to show!... neat bright areas pop out well.
