| Description | The Hii regions were visible from the very beginning. But I stayed on the galaxy for extra integration time for two reasons: first, the side lobes of the galactic disk were pretty faint, and I knew this would be my last observation of the night. This target was high in the north, and approaching transit. I stayed on it until it was 1°, then saved it. The target, with it's Hii regions, was included in the August 2025 CN EAA challenge. |
