- Thin Galaxies (Ari) -

Here I will present some quite thin galaxies with an axis ratio of at least 1:5. Nevertheless this value is calculated from the given angular size, so the visual impression can differ.

8" f/6, 80x, Bortle 4, NELM 5m.9+, SQM-L 21.0
Conditions in the target region: SQM-L 20.8
Quite thin, apparently elongated, slightly brighter center. Overall rather small.
MODERATE

12.5" f/4.5, 206x, SQM-L 21.1
bei 206x kann ich indirekt gut den Stern ausmachen, der unmittelbar südlich der Galaxie steht - die Galaxie selbst offenbart sich nicht
