ASTRO: NGC 5389, 5379 and 5376
Last night had very good transparency and not too bad seeing, so conditions
were quite good by city standards in spite of the half moon. To get the field I wanted I had to switch from guidescope to off-axis-guider as adding the off-axis-guider gives a larger distance between reducer and camera, and I had to rotate the camera 90 degrees, so north is to the left in this image. The "large" galaxy to the left is NGC 5389, above it NGC 5379. A bit above the center of the image UGC 8859 can be faintly seen, the rather bright NGC 5376 is to the right. Taken from the middle of Berlin with a 10" Meade ACF at f/6.7 (image scale ist 0,79 arcseconds/pixel) on a G11 mount, SXV-H9 camera, 39x5 minutes. The image can also be found at http://ccd-astronomy.de/temp2/5389-39x5gut.jpg Stefan |
