Details:
On the southern sky at a declination of -14 degrees, a gem of the local group can be found: Barnard‘s Galaxy, one of its dwarf members at a distance of roughly 2 million light years, glows dimly in the constellation Sagittarius. On the evening of October 29th, we used the short window before moonrise for a 1-hour exposure of this obscure galaxy. We used a Seestar S30P on La Palma island at an elevation of 1100m. Thanks to the crisp skies of the island, even Galactic Cirrus shows clearly all over the field. The image came directly out of the App, no further processing was applied.
