Description:
This was a very diffucult picture, both due to the weak brightness of the object and the difficulty of processing. In fact, despite its magnitude being 9.2, it is an extremely faint object with details that are difficult to highlight. This is the dwarf galaxy IC 1613 in the constellation of Cetus, in an area of sky that is really poor in stars where it is difficult to keep a good guide of the telescope.
