Rio Huratado Valley in Chile

Date/Time of photo:

Jan. 16 and 21, 2024 (JST)

Equipment:

D=508mm, F6.8, Planewave CDK20

Description:

Compared to the image taken by HST in 1996; https://science.nasa.gov/missions/hubble/preview-of-a-forthcoming-supernova/, my new image seems to capture the structure of the Eta Carinae star. Please compare them in my site. The magnification of the two images can be accurate due to the two nearby stars. I used remotely T72 provided by iTelescope. The Eta Carina Star: R/G/B; 0.05 sec x 20 each. NGC3372: L; 30sec x 60, R/G/B; 180 sec each. FLI PL16200 CCD camera. Astrodon E series LRGB filters. North is up. Processed by StelaImage9 and PhotoShop.
