Excellent shot!
This is probably one of the best looking edge-on galaxies...

Thanks for sharing Brian, and keep'em coming! 8)

Very interesting indeed...
I'm wondering about what ramifications this will bring... I'm sure some changes are coming...

Vince, I bought mine used, but the previous owner gave me all that came with the scope, and more...

There was NO software with mine, even though even if it came, I would NOT be using it... (I use some other software, and you could check Cartes Du Ciel, which is free and far superior to the AS)(but the new scopes used to come with the LPI, which would include the Autostar Suite for imaging purposes, and star charting also)

The DB9 cable was NOT included originally with the scope, and doubt they include it now... that is something you'll most likely have to purchase separatedly...

Check this page for the cable...
