NGC 6819 Cluster in Cygnus (90CFT RMod).jpg
This is the small but rich star cluster nicknamed the Foxhead Cluster, or officially NGC 6819, in Cygnus. Caroline Herschel, sister of William Herschel, discovered it in 1784.
The field of view is 4.7° by 3.1°.
This is a stack of 10 x 6-minute exposures with the Astro-Tech 90CFT refractor with the 0.8x Reducer for f/4.8 and the filter-modified Canon R at ISO 800. On the Astro-Physics 600E mount and autoguided with the MGENIII guider. No filter employed other than a UV/IR Cut filter.
