blimey, that's really impressive Mike. always a good idea to compare with Hubble to show that the features are real - really neat that you got the inner central structure.

Inspired by your image, we had a crack at it - just 3 hours due to ongoing equipment issues, but enough to get the outer X, and show we had no chance on that inner detail. Yours is truly razor sharp.

Interesting guys ...thing is, it is so small that seeing is very important I guess So, with a good night, good image scale and an AO unit perhaps?.. and being able to collect heaps of data and only use the very best (a luxury I don't enjoy) would be the best approach on this little tagger.

Very interesting and very small target your fast scope really does pull in the detail.

Cheers Mike, yeah the AG12 is pretty useful, can't wait to pair it side by side with the impending FSQ106EDX4 (to be mated with an FLI 16803) that is due any time now it'll be like my own Hale 200" + Palomar 48" Schmidt combo
