New Image: NGC 2336 / IC 467 Galaxy Pair

#1

Post by jthommes »

This galaxy pair consists of NGC 2336 and IC 467. The distance for NGC 2336 is about 102 million light years and for IC 467 about 104 million light years. Their angular separation is about 20.3 arc minutes - that puts their distance from each other at about 0.6 million light years.

The image also contains multiple background galaxies that are best seen in the full size image. The furthest objects visible in this image are the Quasars - their distances (by light travel time) range from 3.419 to 10.56 billion years.

Below is a cropped and down sampled thumbnail image of NGC 2336 only. The full FOV image and details can be accessed at the links below (or by clicking on the image below). The annotated image has a link below but it can also be accessed from the main image webpage as well - or seen on astrobin. The full resolution image has an image scale of about 0.72 arcsec/pixel.

Full size and annotated images have a pan and zoom feature on my website.

Awesome image Jim!

A lovely and very nicely detailed view of two very distant galaxies.
The annotated version is wonderful and I love seeing the quasars which you nicely identify in all or mostly all of your images. You definitely capture deep space!
Catchy domain name too!
Great work!

Thanks Steve! I really have been enjoying the Edge9.25 with the AP reducer. What really helps is the PI tools that have come out in the past couple of years. As you see, I am using the ASI294 (4/3 sensor). I am a bit afraid of the results I would get with the 2600 (APS-C). My calculations have been that with the AP reducer, the image circle might not support the APS-C size. One of these days, I should give it a try.
