May 1st 2016.

With some really nice skies for a change it was time to revisit a object I first captured back in March for the first time.
The skies were really nice and I also took out the 8" dob for a look at Mars.
Man it looked good in the 8" and 4mm EP.
Distinct surface markings were evident.
After that I surfed through some old favourites, it was great to have the dob out again!

Omega Centaurus.

From Wikipedia:

Omega Centauri (ω Cen), or NGC 5139, is a globular cluster in the constellation of Centaurus that was first identified as a non-stellar object by Edmond Halley in 1677. Located at a distance of 15,800 light-years (4,850 pc), it is the largest globular cluster in the Milky Way at a diameter of roughly 150 light-years. It is estimated to contain approximately 10 million stars and a total mass equivalent to 4 million solar masses.
Omega Centauri is so distinctive from the other galactic globular clusters that it is thought to have an alternate origin as the core remnant of a disrupted dwarf galaxy.

Scope- Skywatcher 102 ALT/AZ goto.
Camera- Canon 1200D.
I took 40 light frames at 30 second exposures and only 8 were usable.
Those 8 along with a few dark and flat frames went into DSS for stacking.

The post processing work was done in Star tools.

Here it is.
