M83 the southen pinwheel
I used a remote telescope in chile for 7.5 hours of data to process on the southern pinwheel galaxy. the galaxy is shaped similar to the milky way and is about 15 million light years away
just to the right of it are a couple of smaller galaxies (at least the look smaller from earth)
they are MUCH further away, eatimated at 600 million light years away
Imaged using RGB and L filters (the remote telescopes uses monochrome camera. the camera allows finer detail at the cost of requiring filters to create a color image
