M31 Andromeda Galaxy
Andromeda, catalogue number M31, is the nearest big galaxy to our own Milky Way. Its size, about 152,000 light years across, gives it the span of about six full Moons - except that it's very faint, so with the naked eye only the bright fuzzy centre is visible.
My picture comprises more than 2,600 x 20” exposures (14.5 hours) at ISO 800, imaged from Colchester, England, in November 2023 on a modified Nikon D750 DSLR with Baader MPCC III coma corrector, Sky-Watcher Explorer 150p on EQ5 Pro, via Stellarmate in Kstars/Ekos. Stacked in AstroPixelProcessor, cropped and adjusted in Photoshop and Lightroom.
