Equipment 20in RC Optical Systems telescope Operating at f/8.1 Paramount ME Robotic Telescope Mount SBIG ST10XME CCD camera with color filter wheel LRGB color production was used to create this image. Image data taken on a night with 1st quarter moon and high cirrus. One iteration of L-R deconvolution (sharpening) algorithm using CCDsharp was applied to the luminance image. Digital Development (DDP) via Maxim/DL was also used in order to display the very dim and very bright details of the image simultaneously. Luminance = 105 minutes binned 1x1 Red = 30 minutes binned 2x2 Green = 30 minutes binned 2x2 Blue = 30 minutes binned 2x2 Minimum credit line: James Carlisle/Flynn Haase/NOAO/AURA/NSF
