NGC 1763 with RC6 and Seestar

NGC 1763 (the Bean nebula) - an emission nebula with an embeded star cluster sitting on the outskirts of the Large Magellanic Cloud in the constellation Dorado approximately 160000 light years from Hahndorf!


First 2 pics taken with my 'big rig' - 6" Ritchey-Chrétien telescope (Focal length 1370mm), presented in the SHO (Hubble) and HOO palettes. The last pic is the same object taken with the relatively inexpensive Seestar S50 smart telescope for comparison (and debate!!)

Big Boy versions...
