Matthias Steinmetz<p>Playing with SeeStar in EQ mode: Taking some 600 frames 50% in RGB and 50% with a nebula filter, stacked in PI, some basic image processing and then blended - considering the investment of time and $$, I think the outcome is quite impressive. <br>www.astrobin.com/vx0t7o 🔭<a href="https://astrodon.social/tags/astrophotography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>astrophotography</span></a> 📷🔭</p>

Messier 13, der große Kugelsternhaufen im Herkules, wurde 1714 von Edmund Halley entdeckt. Mit einer Flächenausdehnung von 20,0' (wahrer Durchmesser 145 Lichtjahre) und einer Helligkeit von 5,7 mag ist er unter einem dunklen Himmel bereits mit dem bloßen Auge zu sehen. Er umkreist unsere Heimat­milch­straße in einer Entfernung von 25 000 Lichtjahren.

Aufnahmedaten:
Kamera: ZWO ASI 1600 MMP
Optik: 102/920 mm Fluorit Apo bei f/7
Belichtung: 10x300s L, 24x240s RGB,
gesamte Belichtungszeit: 2h 26 m
Korrekturen: Bias, Dark- und Flatframes
EBV: PixInsight, Fitswork

I found out from Wikipedia that this distant object is called Sarah's Galaxy. I find this name more appropriate than the ordinary and vulgar one that people call it. Sarah's Galaxy refers to Sarah Williams, who wrote this poem that is all me now:

"Though my soul may set in darkness, it will rise in perfect light;
I have loved the stars too truly to be fearful of the night."
The Old Astronomer

Seen edge-on, NGC 3628 is known to be a spiral galaxy. However, its profile is odd. Looks thick to me, and its extremes look thicker. I assume this oddness is due to its many interactions with its neighbors, which form the famous Leo's Triplet.
