Here's a view I took of the fascinating galaxy, NGC 6951, Monday morning from Lakeside, Tooele County. It's a barred spiral with crazy arms, a Seyfrut galaxy located about 75 million light-years away in Cepheus. The grayish material in the background is called the "integrated flux nebula" in our Milky Way Galaxy. Total exposure was in the order of three hours, but I haven't added up the subexposures. -- Joe http://www.slas.us/gallery2/main.php?g2_itemId=5967
Joe, your skills have come a long way. patrick On 02 Sep 2014, at 00:12, Joe Bauman via Utah-Astronomy <utah-astronomy@mailman.xmission.com> wrote:

Thanks, all. I plan to do more work on the color and if I get a better outcome I'll post it. -- Joe On Tuesday, September 2, 2014 8:37 AM, Richard Tenney <retenney@yahoo.com> wrote: Both images are lovely Joe -- nice work! ________________________________ From: Joe Bauman via Utah-Astronomy <utah-astronomy@mailman.xmission.com> To: Wiggins Patrick <paw@getbeehive.net>; Utah Astronomy <utah-astronomy@mailman.xmission.com> Sent: Tuesday, September 2, 2014 12:28 AM Subject: Re: [Utah-astronomy] NGC 6951 Thanks, Patrick!

Looks very nice, Joe. I wish I could get the same polar alignment with my Meade mount. I’ve been getting a lot of football-shaped stars with the bigger scope. More learning curve…I hate that. Here’s a quick 10-minute exposure I did through the 81mm refractor this morning of Comet C/2014 E2. Three satellites came through in that 10-minute exposure. No dark subtraction, obviously. https://www.flickr.com/photos/78046474@N06/15117627862/ Dave On Sep 2, 2014, at 0:12, Joe Bauman via Utah-Astronomy <utah-astronomy@mailman.xmission.com> wrote:

Nice capture of Comet Jacques. The line down the right is clearly a satellite, and at first I thought the three parallel lines were a capture of a NOSS satellite trio, but the difference in brightness and the slightly offset brighter line segments suggest this is a jet with strobing wing lights instead. Agree? Jared On Tue, Sep 2, 2014 at 8:40 AM, Dave Gary <davegary@me.com> wrote:

Thanks, Joe. One of these days we’ll have to image together and you’ll have to show me how to get the most out of the bigger scope. Dave On Sep 2, 2014, at 10:39, Joe Bauman via Utah-Astronomy <utah-astronomy@mailman.xmission.com> wrote:

Jared, I have no idea. Sounds good to me. Could have been aliens looking for probing material. I was there asleep in my chair until the computer woke me up. They missed their opportunity. Speaking of probing, I just got back from the physician’s office (annual physical). Lot’s of fun. He told me that if he didn’t have all those other patients I’d be his favorite. Made me almost tear up. Dave On Sep 2, 2014, at 9:30, Jared Smith <jared@smithplanet.com> wrote:
