The Leo Triplet

 

I managed to get about an hour of data last night on the Leo triplet (also known as the M66 Group). This stacked image consists of 480 x 7s images with the RASA 8, DS10C (no gain or binning) and L-Pro filter. Conditions were hazy with very tenuous, high cloud, but the effects on imaging were minimal. This image is cropped about 50% from the original. The M66 Group consists of 3 galaxies: M65, M66, and NGC 3627. All are spiral galaxies.
