M35 Cluster in Gemini (EDQ86 R5).jpg
This is the bright and rich showpiece star cluster Messier 35 in Gemini, accompanied by the smaller, fainter and more distant, but also rich cluster NGC 2158 at lower right of M35. A very loose and poor cluster, IC 2157, is to the right of NGC 2158, though it barely stands out from the starry background.
Technical:
This is a stack of 19 x 5 minute exposures with the Astro-Tech EDQ86 apo refractor at its native f/7 focal ratio, using the Canon R5 at ISO 800. On the Astro-Physics AP400 mount autoguided with the Lacerta MGEN3 guider. Shot from home on a mild winter night in January 2025.
