First mosaic using Array - Cepheus Potpourri

Your Shot with Voyager

Cepheus in Perspective - B148, B149, B150, NGC6939 and NGC6946 - Mosaic - LRGB

Mosaic (my first!) composed of two panels along RA. Taken during nautical twilight as it does not get truly dark in England until late July now. L taken with Moravian G4 - 152mm refractor at 1300mm - and RGB with ASI2600 - 92mm refractor at 490mm.
Great field to ponder about the distance of objects along our line of sight: Barnard 150, the Seahorse Nebula is at roughly 1200ly; the cluster NGC6939 at 3860ly and NGC6946, the fireworks galaxy, at 22.5 million ly…

Check out the annotated RGB image (9K x 4K mosaic).

All made possible by Voyager despite the short nights (<3hrs). Working on a 9 panel mosaic in Cygnus now :crazy_face:

Thank you Francesco. None of this is possible without the Web Dashboard! :sunglasses: It’s the best tool out there to frame objects. That leaving aside the full control of Voyager from a mobile device. :+1:

Congrats.
