NGC 2442

Click image above to view full size
This is another fine galaxy, with good detail visible throughout. My image shows reasonable sharpness and detail, with a little more exposure time needed to smooth out the noise. This was unguided and hence exposures limited to 180 seconds with a little bit of trailing visible (not quite round stars).
Camera:SBIG ST7-ME
Aperture:300mm
Date:27th December 2005
