This one hour image unguided taken Friday evening, June 19, 2010 with Orion 80ED mounted on a Celestron CGEM goto mount. I attempted to image these galaxies before and decided I would try again last night. The galaxies known as Seyfert Sexteltt in Serpens Cauda looked like they were merging some 49,000 ly distance. Located near ra 15h 59m dec +20d 43', they appear in the center of this image (sort of triangle appearance). Actually wanted another two galaxies merging, but this one was a challange with this scope. Next time I may try imaging with the Celestron 11" scope. Setup at 8:30 pm, closed 2:00 am.
