Get Me Some Thor's Helmet!

Posted By Rod Kaufman

Anybody out there imaging Thor's Helmet these days?
I couldn't go to Lockwood Valley to see it this weekend because the weather sucks and next weekend I'm doing my continuing ed to renew my x-ray supervisor and operator certificate so I won't be able to go and the weather will probably be perfect!
So how about it?
Here's one mouth watering view:

Narrow Band under the Moon

Posted By Rod Kaufman

Gee Floyd, I could wall paper my kitchen with this.
I'm going to have to keep you away from imaging under the moon, you'll be putting the Hubble to shame before you're finished...

I can't say how deep you've gone on the limiting magnitude around Stephan's Quintet but it's very deep.
Here's the deepest notation I could find on a google search:
