Central Milkyway in Infrared

[multiweb (Marc)]

Just got around to process that one from a few weeks ago. Some moon glow as it was close to previous full moon. It's 3 panels of 5x5min. The field is centered on the cat paws which is barely visible. There's a plate solve here that'll help identifying the objects. M7 is recognisable at the right of the field. North is up.

There's a HD version here [1.5MB] and something a little bigger here [3MB]

Nice detail, Marc!

[RickS (Rick)]

Fascinating, Marc! It's like a foreign galaxy

Thanks guys. By next year I should have enough big panels to stitch a big one

Nice work, Marc. A little spooky without the Ha!

[RobF (Rob)]

Nice one Marc.
Do you see this as a natural evolution on to your suburban Ha work?

Yeah something different to do. Not much more I can do from here in term of colors. Might try UV next.

Weird looking without the Ha in the field. Should make an interesting looking final image when the mosaic is finished.

Interesting.... but boring huh .....

Would be good to see a large mozaic though, I agree

[multiweb (Marc)]

Thanks all. Might have to wait until next year.

You must never get bored....always something new up your sleeve!

Good luck with it.
