Pinwheel Galaxy: My first-light pix w/ new Quattro 250P Imaging Newtonian 10″ telescope

Share

My shot of Pinwheel Galaxy, (Messier 101) from the other night
21 million light-years from Earth. 2 hour and 8 min of shooting.  1000 mm at f/4.

Also, un-cropped image with overlay of what’s what (PGC ones are more-distant galaxies.) and a photo of the scope on my mount. It barely fits in the AstroHut, lol. (click images to see larger)
