Thanks Mike. 60 minutes for a DSLR is probably new ground. I wasn't sure how it would go. I guess the worry is it could damage your sensor.
I felt the camera afterwards there was no sign of heat buildup.

Greg, Great work, there is nothing else I can say that everyone hasn't already said - Inspired.

Beautiful image. Your hard work collecting and processing this image paid off!

Wow. A whole new perspective on the most familiar of sights.

That is a beautiful image Greg!

One of the best Milky Way shots I have seen.

Cheers

Congratulations Greg,

I'd like to see the NIR only image as well.

Regards

Thanks Steven.
I'll definitely post that once I've finished the CCD version.

Outstanding image Greg, thanks for the view.

Had another look Greg and with the infrared it's even more spectacular! I think you have a unique image here because I can't recall anyone combining narrowband and RGB for wide field milky way shots before. Everyone should be doing it now.

Cheers

Thanks Steve. The narrowband definitely adds some interest.

Thanks Alan. Yes its quite a bit. I have even more data to process - its over 20 hours so far.

Greg,

Your scientifically interesting image of the very "vertically" extended (up to high galactic latitude) dust has inspired me to write an article about the various types of gas ejections from spiral galaxies.

It is in the science forum, in two parts, under the heading "Massive molecular outflow in NGC 253"

It turns out that the gas & dust in the plane of a spiral galaxy like the Milky Way does not just stick near the plane. While most of the gas and dust is in a thin planar layer, there is usually enough energy from OB stars and supernovae in galaxies of Hubble types Sbc and Sc to project gas and dust a long way above the principal plane of a spiral galaxy.

Even more interestingly, there are processes acting in the opposite direction, with gas falling into the plane from the halo of a spiral galaxy or even from intergalactic space!

The interstellar medium of a spiral galaxy like our Milky Way Galaxy, even considered as a closed system with no gas and dust being added or subtracted, is already exceedingly complex.
The gas expulsions to high above the plane, and gas capture from the halo, add even more complexity.

cheers, Robert
