Centaurus A, or NGC5128

Howdy. Current project is Centaurus A (aka NGC5128) and so far I have abt 11hrs (total) of LRGB. I'll be getting more and Oiii and Ha too. Hi-res is here. I can just see a small part of one of the jets in the full-size image; I hope it will become more pronounced with additional data.

EdgeHD 8", AZ-EQ6, ASI294MM, ASI174MM & AOG, Antlia LRGB filters, NINA, PI and PS

Sharing for fun. Thanks for looking. Alex

Fantastic work Alex. Really stunning detail through the core and yes the jet is starting to appear too. I found that the Oiii came out a little stronger but the larger Ha portion of the jet is really difficult to expose and needs plenty of time. I look forward to seeing how you go!

Wow Alex. That’s a stunning image. I love this target and never seem to get enough of it. Nothing I’ve taken comes close to that though.
Well done!
