This is an image of NGC253 also known as the Silver Coin Galaxy. It is located in the constellation of Sculptor at a distance of 12.8 million light years.
The data was collected at Swan Reach Imaging over the course of several nights with a total integration of 21 hours.
Imaging equipment was an OOUK AG12 with ZWO 6200 on a PME mount.
I have now migrated fully to using NINA with the advanced sequencer which is excellent if you have a weather abort situation. After the weather abort clears the roof reopens and then my systems go back to imaging the various targets I have lined up. It is very efficient in the use of clear nights.
