This is really cool, Phil!! What did you use to take this photo?
Thanks! I have an astrophotography setup that I used for this. It is a William Optics ZenithStar 61 telescope on a SkyWatcher EQM-35 equatorial mount and the camera is a ZWO ASI533MC Pro cooled sensor astro camera. It is actually 80 x 2 minute exposures stacked and processed to make the final image.
Wow, thatβs an impressive setup. Amazing picture you captured!!
Holy shit your camera is as good as the ones used in the pics from APOD
