Popular Post +Glafnazur Posted March 30, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted March 30, 2022 A couple of images of NGC 2419, probably not the best target using the full frame DSLR, if weather and time permit I'll have another go with the ASI 178mc. NGC 2419 (also known as Caldwell 25) is a globular cluster in the constellation Lynx. It was discovered by William Herschel on December 31, 1788. NGC 2419 is at a distance of about 300,000 light years from the Solar System and at the same distance from the galactic centre. NGC 2419 bears the nickname "the Intergalactic Wanderer," its orbit takes it further away from the galactic centre than the Magellanic Clouds, but it can be considered as part of the Milky Way. At this great distance it takes three billion years to make one trip around the galaxy.

BAZ Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 You don't see this one often and you didn't make things easy for yourself. Well done, it's a good image. +Glafnazur 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Martyn, I normally check the image size in Telescopius but I didn't bother that evening I just went for it 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
