Keenan's system

[Dietmar]

hi guys,
here is another collaborative result from Austria:
Martin has collected some great data on the Keenan's system.
after dark-flat subtract, alignment and stacking conducted by Martin, I was privilegd to process the files.
here is all data and all the images FYI:

let me also draw your attention to a fascinating artice written by Tammy Plotner from UT on this interactive pair:
Bridge Across Space: "Keenan's System" by Martin Winder and Dietmar Hager | Universe Today (http://www.universetoday.com/2008/07/25/bridge-across-space-keenans-system-by-martin-winder-and-dietmar-hager/)
thanks for looking!

some lovely detail in the galaxys plus the starstream bridge, it looks just like one of those supercomputer simulations that you see where they interact and rotate about each other, exept this is the real deal. :thumbsup:
