New Large Transparencies from the Royal Observatory

Some more UK Schmidt film from the Royal Observatory Edinburgh is available. See my other threads for details.

SET A (Four fields for only $40)
Field 806 (RA 18h 20m; Dec -05d) Scutum/Serpens Cauc
Field 807 (RA 18h 40m; Dec -05d) Scutum/Aquila, incl. M11, dust
Field 808 (RA 19h 00m; Dec -05d) Scutum/Aquila, incl NGC 6751 (Glowing Eye Planetary Nebula)
Field 813 (RA 20h 40m, Dec -05d) Aquarius/Aquila, incl NGC 6945

SET B (Four fields for only $40)
Field 826 (RA 01h 00m; Dec -0d) Cetus, incl NGC 271
Field 831 (RA 02h 40m; Dec -0d) Cetus, incl M77, NGC 1004, NGC 1007, NGC 1008, NGC 1009, NGC 1032, and more
Field 839 (RA 05h 20m; Dec -00d) Orion, incl Delta Orionis and nebula nearby (incl. faint ghost image from one of the belt stars)
Field 856 (RA 11h 00m; Dec 0d) Leo, incl NGC 3521, IC660, IC661

SET C (Four fields for only $50)
Field 861 (RA 12h 40m; Dec 00d) Virgo, incl NGC 4437, NGC 4493, and numerous other galaxies
Field 862 (RA 13h 00m; Dec 00d) Virgo, a nice collection of galaxies
Field 864 (RA 13h 40m; Dec 00d) Virgo, NGC 5257/8 (nice interacting galaxies), and a number of other nice galaxies too
Field 866 (RA 14h 20m; Dec 00d) Virgo: many nice galaxies

All fields are 5 degrees x 5 degrees, 45cm x 45cm, and has objects to about Mag 23. The film is of a very high quality.

Postage is likely to be about $6 for one or two sets. Postage can be combined with other orders. Teaching sets and other transparencies are available (see other threads).
