M16 - Eagle Nebula (10" GSO-830)

[weathermon (Mike)]

Hi everyone,

I finally got around to getting a 10" light bucket and tonight I got autoguiding working with it (massively overweight - 19kg total payload on the NEQ6 eep! Thank goodness I have done the belt mod upgrade). Here is a stack of 9x2 min subs of M16, cropped. The details are incredible!

Cheers, Mike

Very cool Mike! Good to see the new light bucket working out well. What camera did you use?

Well done!

I own an GSO RC10 Truss since last month and I did afirst light in Halpha light centred exactly in the same area. I am looking forward this weekend to complete the first light with RGB, but here this nebula is not very high in the sky...
