Ngc 986

Hello everyone.

Nice little galaxy this and framed well by some bright stars.

The line of stars (?) at the 2 o'clock position is quite interesting. Not seen those before in other images?

Taken with the 12.5" RCOS from Yass, AOL guided with STL11K and Astrodon Gen 2 filters.

Its HaLRGB consisting of 6.5:11:3:3:3 hours for a total of 26.5.

thanks for checking it out and clear skies

Martin
