A brief semi clear patch last night so I took advantage of that and picked up 3 hours on NGC2442. I have been wanting to image this galaxy for a long time. Its quite an interesting galaxy. Strange how there are so many different shapes in galaxies around. I wonder why it ends up S shaped rather than a full spiral?
I intend to add more to it if I get the chance. There was a bit of high cloud around at the time as well.
