    In the March 1978 issue of Sky & Telescope magazine, in the article Deep-Sky Wonders, Walter Scott Houston referred to the "discovery" of this cluster that did not appear in any catalog or star chart of the time by an amateur astronomer, John Pazmino.......

  3. LDN 1152 (The Architeuthis Or Giant Squid In Draco Cepheus)

     
     
     
    LDN 1152,RNO 124 (" The Architeuthis Rex or Giant Squid ".This was my first impression when processing the image. An Architeuthis Rex expelling ink all around ). Maybe too excesive imagination... :P
     
    RNO 124 :As a whole, this nebula has a conical shape, with a star IRAS 20359+6745  at its apex. It is possible to separate two distinct reflection structures in the nebula. The former is represented by a regular cone with an opening angle of about 60 degrees and with straight walls, which are extended up to 2´.

  4. Nice shot Antonio! I admire your work!

    Thinking of moving my gear down to south-west Spain (hosting) as the weather is often crappy where I live in mid-north of Sweden, if you know of any hosting site with a good price let me know ;)

     

    Cheers,

    Thanks Christer !... you´re very kind !.

    Well... the closest hosting site to me is about 150 Kilometers from my remote observatory. A friend of mine is one of the people which fix the roll-roof observatory  systems ( software&hardware)  of this hosting site (although he´s not the owner )....He travels all around Spain working for amateur&professional university  observatories.. .

    Said this, I´m not part of this at all  and I have not interest or business here  ..  :mellow:

     

    The hosting site is at SW of Spain and is "Entre Encinas y Estrellas " (e-Eye) : http://entreencinasyestrellas.es/

     

    This is just what I can recommend you,.Christer...

     Best regards !!!

  5. Thanks, Waldemar !

    Happy you like it !

    Antonio
