Chuck's Astrophotography

Hello Everyone, here is my latest capture - the Little Beehive Cluster (M41). The cluster has a diameter of 25–26 light-years and is receding from Earth at a speed of 14 miles per second (23.3 km/s). Captured with my Celestron RASA telescope, ZWO ASI533MC color camera, and an Antlia L-Filter.

Hello Everyone, here is my latest capture - the Phantom Galaxy (M74). It is a "grand-design" spiral face-on galaxy, 32 million light-years away. It is only slightly smaller in both size and the number of stars than our own Milky Way galaxy. Captured with my Celestron RASA telescope, ZWO ASI533MC color camera, and an Antlia L-Filter.
