Paul,

Make that Good nights. Although when you are there in person they certainly 
look like God nights.

Paul,

God nights at RH are between 1-2 arcsecond seeing. I think the seeing was 
pretty good for this one as I recall.

Bernard,

Great job! I really like the way the H-II regions show up.  I tried imaging 
NGC253 recently at the antennas site but the seeing was terrible.  Plus, this 
object never gets very high.  I wonder if you have a way of remotely judging 
the seeing at the Rancho Hidalgo site, especially for best resolution in the 
lumanence exposures.

Hi,
 

The link below is to NGC253, also known as The Sculptor Galaxy or Silver Dollar 
Galaxy. It is a spiral galaxy about 11 Million light years away in the 
constellation of Sculptor.

Suggestions and comments are welcomed.

 

Thanks,
