The globular cluster NGC 5139 - Omega
Centauri |
|
|
Short Object description:
One of the first test recordings with the new CDK
12.5" PlaneWave Astrographs. With the larger opening we have here a slightly
deeper recording of Omega Centauri than with the Onjala APQ in May 2013. The
weak stars outside the globular cluster extend to the edge of the image field
and even go over it out. For further information, please refer to the
recording with the APQ.
Seeing at
recording time was around 2.8'' (FWHM).
