Messier 92, May’25

Stunning globular cluster Messier 92 in Hercules (~27 000 ly away), captured with faint background galaxies—June session highlight!

A few globular clusters are still to come, but the end is in sight. Messier 92 is the 6th of a total of 9 globular clusters that I photographed in May and June using the VC200L and the EOS R, with consistent equipment and workflow.

M92 was the second object of the night and was photographed from around 1:30 AM to 3:30 AM.
